Awards Poems

The Great British Entrepreneur Awards

I'm so incredibly proud and privileged ,
to be recognised by the #GBEA '25 team,
The fact that I've been shortlisted,
Is far beyond my wildest dream.

Single mum to three wild boys,
They're the apple of my eyes,
I'm the founder of Lotus Poetry,
A new and upcoming social enterprise.

I'm running on purpose and passion,
Lots of caffeine, kindness and care,
But I'm

The SAG Awards

It’s fun to watch Awards shows,
Though they’re shallow and they’re trite – 
Stars all gathering together
For an ego-boosting night.

Yet the SAG Awards montages
Showing actors at their start
Captured images of younger days
That set the show apart.

From childhood roles and little parts
In soaps or SVU,
We got to see performers
When their jobs were spanking new.

The lucky ones who

Premium MemberParticipation Awards For Everyone

The best
contest,

so fun,
is one

in which
you ditch

all thoughts
that lots

of time
with rhyme

and with
real pith

will get
you set

to win
with pen

a note 
you wrote

to cheers 
from peers

because
it does

stand out
about

a theme
you seem

to state
with weight

and grace;
to place

with verse
perverse

or terse
or worse

instead,
ahead

of none
save one,

the guy,
who by

mistake,
did make

a goof,
and poof!

DQ
anew.

Surprise,
surprise,

all tries,
first prize,

upsized
with fries!

Big lol,
that's all...

Military Awards and Medals

Awards and Recognition

They patted selves on their very own back;
They do have all things which we will lack;
Am so sore,
We are poor,
Live in towers while we survive in a shack.

Many things medals and awards are about;
Who is the one who can give the most out;
Never sure,
Or can endure;
In whole system  we do have much

An Academy Awards Affair

An Academy Awards Affair
(To remember???)

When playing game called Academy Awards
You must learn how to use many chords
And then I started to play song's notes
People left and had to jump in their boats.

To many was really an amusing affair
But for others sure was hard to bare
As show went along and it progressed
Not impressed with way women

The dazzle in lights
A Broadway moment full of entertainment being a sight
Dance numbers to get the audience and TV Viewers in the mood
Dramatics that catch you off guard, but know how to soothe
The Tony Awards has everything to prove
It’s a talent night being on the move
Hand me my Tony Award
But the Tony Awards on Sunday
