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".

Anita's happy poem!


In peace I come
like the budding rose
I find a soft chair to sit on
the cushion warm

My hot pot bubbles as the water
with be put in an English
cobalt blue tea pot

Miyu and Maskaki
will romp in my house and their
eyes will find the piano
soon there will be music
the fingers of little kids
banging

The years go by
5 years these wonderful neighbors
from Japan
next door, by my side.
