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".

Westin Market Street-Anita Holzberg

In the sea of people
I sit at a bar
the room filled with chatter
I quietly have my cappuccino
I eat a plate of cheese
World Union is all around me
business people too
I wait for the Cheese plate and
walnut bread sliced thin
I eat a few roasted almonds
a bite of cheese
a bread full of butter

It has been a while since I've even
been to a classy hotel
this Westin 4 star
a class act
in every demeanor
in all that I saw there
comfortable bed, flat screen TV
a bunch of munchies
glasses like wine glasses

in the end
we come home again
sweet home
with ourselves
no matter
a white robe on my back
I am free.
