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".

A Lazy Saturday Afternoon


In the deep seated silence
my yard a vehicle for peace
a bowl of chicken barley soup & vegetables
before me
some water to wash it down
my feet bare on the cement patio floor
my Autumn red sweater popped over
gray jeans

Completeness
is feeling comfort
by yourself

No birds this afternoon
Only the 70 degree California sun
on my shoulder

Is it really November?
