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".

success smells sweet as roses - Anita Holzberg


Success walked in
along a trim hedge in my yard
50 poems are out there
blog and e mails
Amazon.com
with all that fan fare
I heave a sigh of relief
"Hard work never killed anybody,"
said my mother
a woman for all seasons
that made us walk to school
in snow
never a clone
I salute all that
followed me here
the music plays more
than ever!
