The big occasion came and went
Much pent-up energy was spent
At evening's end - prizes clasped
As others folks queried the past
For so much hard work and polish
Deserves recognition for all comers
Just for putting words with tunes
Then merging all into media soon
The wonder is it should happen at all
Not really fair to single out works to call
One better than four others in a group
The fact is - they've all made the loop
Going from mind to instrument to mix
The glory is in all the various sticks
Used to get from point A to point B
And awards just make everyone see
