Poem/Vocab

Spotlight

Once a year comes a night of attainment
Exclusive awards are given, the losers may resent
All actors and actresses will attend, whether friends or foe
But winners feel supercilious, and rightfully so

Welcome, to the Academy Awards
                   

First the limos arrive, down the red carpet to the spotlight each beauty struts
They act nonchalant, hoping they do not end up in a rut
Each dress is so gorgeous, handpicked for this night
Whoever looks the best will put the others out of sight

You can find the most beautiful people, at the Academy Awards

An uncanny feeling consumes all of the nominees
If the Academy esteems your film, you shall soon see
The Oscars are not bequeathed, but earned through talented work
If you ascertain you are the winner, you will be invulnerable and enter the stage with a smirk

You are a champion, of the Academy Awards  

Most movies are finite in one’s memory, forgotten as soon as they’re done
But the best picture of the year will remain in the spotlight as the most popular one
All of the celebrities disperse as the glamorous night comes to an end
The planning for next year now begins, to create a show that has become such a trend

Goodbye for now, from the Academy Awards
