I Love Dance. EVA DANCES. Dance Song. The time, spring 2012. Eva von Gencsy, dancer, 87, still dancing.
I met Eva by accident, over a dozen years ago, when she was giving a dance class at a sports center. I stayed taking classes with her because of her warmth and her contagious love of dance. I wrote this tribute to her for her 80th birthday.
I watch the video. Eva forever radiating her love of dance. Eva, forever a dancer, forever loving dance. I hear her voice. I dance.

EVA DANCES
I dance my life
a chance this gift
as long as I live
it lifts me
enchants me
dance
I thank you
all my life long
I dance
Eva von Gencsy, 87. I Dance.
