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 Open My Heart - Anita Holzberg

Cool winds blow
  I awake at 5 to the sound of the wind
It is March
  The trees are blooming 
  At 9
The sky will become clear
I will walk in full sun
Yesterday, so tired
I never did my exercise
Yet, 7 lbs. down

As the day unfolds
Picchu gobbles her new cat food
So much to her liking

I open my heart to the wind and shadow
Spring wakes
My vision is clear

Like Hemingway's Moveable Feast
I write a bit, stop, write again
save some for the next day
and begin again.
