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".

Fresh Strawberries - ANITA HOLZBERG

Morning becomes Electra
the trees solid
the green leaves not quite bright
with sun
I sing a song of gratitude
the list is long

the fresh strawberries
become my breakfast
with a little plain yogurt
my white mug filled with
the gold raw coffee
'specially picked for today
and brewed to perfection

In the cooking and preparing
In the shopping and cleaning
In the visualizing and dreaming

I start this Spring day
with a friend who calls
back
dancing at my table.
