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".

Cool Pool - Anita Holzberg


Aside from believing
  I believe
like hunting for caterpillars
   your head in my lap
memory does not fail me
as I write these lines
as I swim in the cool pool
so much my past is swimming
training for swimming
teaching swimming
I did 5 laps
did not stop
250 kicks
Oh, the cool pool
I float my dreams
my loves all seemingly together
the loves of my life
Owen and Evie highest on the list
cool pool.
