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".

I carry you - Anita Holzberg

I carry you in my heart
the wind in my
pocket
the sea of hope
rising

I carry you in my heart
the storms loom
the rains come down

the photograph
of you
never lost

I carry you as you are my only
connector to myself

I carry you green peace on a turbulent day
I carry you marshmallows on graham crackers
I carry you, a face from within.

On pillows, I will think of you
On street corners, at stop signs
I will remember You

As I take you with me on a journey
of my soul rising and
falling
You, there-- p r o t e c t me

Your look, your glow
will be so so
Wonderful!
So Absol u t e l y
so
Wonder ful!

Time will take you to another place

You will stay with me regardless

Your lips, your smile
will carry me

And you will be carried by me, too.

Anita S. Holzberg
I will carry you
A poem about friendship, love, interconnection
of the highest order.
