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".

Mini Poems - By Anita!

Mini Poems

In the rivers of the mind
  I touch deep
   small pools
     big dreams
(out of darkened waters)


I don't look back
 keep on running
    the charge to
jump start
   comes from
     within.

      2        

In the breakfast of the
      mind
        fresh pear
      cheddar chunks
     grapenuts crunch

I begin again
 with myself
    because
I can only be myself
     to myself.

        3        

A firefly sticker
    by my sleeve
 iced creamed mornings
    speak to the ever
            ending
          sky
what chance for renewal
Now!

          4                

In rivers I call home
  the dark fogged in morning
     Il Divo plays
Peace walks, like never before
      I am home.

          5              

Morning comes quietly
  quickly I make my coffee
     the blend of spices
 cinamon and hazelnut
      fill the room
June is soon!!

         6        

What is it about the rain
  wind and fog
      what is it about
the sea, trees, and mountains
  I see your faces
In this early morning
peace reigns like a queen.
