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".

In Beauty - Anita Holzberg

In beauty
  In candor
    In the nuances
          that make up
             your life
I have been your Mother
   your pain,
      my pain
   your joy,
       my joy
I look at you
  all grown-up
    with a life of your own
       You have made
               your way in this world
  
In peace
 In harmony, I come
    I seek for you
          the very best life
  with your beloved

In words beyond words
 I speak silence
    like acts of kindness
           that I bestow unto thee.
                 dear Emily.
