Between Friends: Poem by Anita

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".

20 years almost since my divorce

20 years not communicating

Now in the heat of the wedding

Mother and daughter emerge as a team

The goal is to get there

Walking is compromised but better

Walking her down the aisle my greatest motivation..........

Waltzing into 3 weeks to go,

the bride rushes to finish

the mother of the bride rushes too

our goal is the same

we will cross that finish line

together.
