Two woman, Anita Holzberg and Ann Wainwright met over the internet with Bill Costley,
their common friend, whose wife Carolin had been Ann's good friend. Starting in
June '09, Anita sent a Cupcake poem to Ann's website cakecakecake, after seeing
the photo of cupcakes. The poem was about her grandson's first birthday party. Ann
liked that and it was the start of a wonderful exchange of poems from Anita to Ann and
Ann with color, photos, and lay-out savvy, presented them to the blog. Now, in 2010,
the two women so alike in spirit and interests, have started BetweenFriends, a new blog
site where they can combine ideas about their worlds. Ann lives in Northern UK
(Teesside). Anita lives in Northern California, Sunnyvale, (Silicon Valley where all the
computers are.) We share our lives on this blog and hope you will comment and share
yours too, dear readers and enjoy the "ride".

Poem for June by Anita Holzberg

Time the great marker
 sugar-coated occurrences
 wind that does not stop

One white rose appears
 then one red
 and then a third one--orange

I tell the garden to be my barometer
 when the small beaked hummingbird arrives
 when the bushy black tailed squirrels ride
 my telephone wires high
 when summer simulates spring
 when curtains ring.




two roses
 one white,
 one red
meet beyond the wooden shed

each ones' song
 out into the universe

June tune.
