Ah-The Cina-Ma

Ah-The Cina-Ma I love going to the movies - the big screen is such a sight. Popcorn, pop, and a picture show - what a true delight! From watching westerns as a kid with grandpa I did go. Double features were the norm - you got to see two shows. 3 D's at the old Esquire - blood curdling, scary scenes. Then a night at the Drive-in - hook on them speakers you movie fiends. I loved to sit in the balcony - seemed cooler than below. The weekends always packed them in through rain and sleet and snow. And later came the Cineplex and then the grand I-Max. the screens get bigger and better, but let's not forget the past. Movies make you laugh and cry - they make you feel weak and then strong. They'll send chills up your spine and take you back where you belong. Thrills and excitement - passion and sorrow too. You can feel high as a kite and then sad, lonely, and blue. But going to the movies - it's cool and it's neat. Sit back and view the big screen - still one of life's grand treats.
