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".

creating rainbows - Anita


For Mama Rachel:

Melancholy moon
  I have stood in your light
        memorizing the rays
  I have drunk your wine
        in the finest of days
  I have sat in throne of mothers
         toddlers as my charge
  I have brought you all to the swimming pool
           I have combed your hair
               and put on your socks
I have held the most amazing dreams for you
               Now,
             you are doing all that for your family
                   holding the dream
             for Owen and Evie

         creating rainbows.
