So much to like but Amy's ku and Larry's speak loudest to me. Christine Gilbert is an Austin poet. I'm thankful for illusions, that magic is created with a picture or a word, that the loneliness of silence can be filled with musical transfusions. I'm thankful for illusions, when escape is possible on the silver screen, where I can live vicariously a life unseen and charmed, find fulfillment in danger or romance, then walk away unharmed. I m thankful for the dance.
