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".

Poem by Anita


I write a piece of music
  Picchu hears it
     She approves
How wonderful to have a cat that approves
  of me
I searched my whole life for approval
And this fer-rel tuxedo cat approves me
   unconditionally
          a few meows here and there
    a bowel of Friskies
                   she is not a fussy cat
                            and she is cool
              sits like Buddha on the rug
                          just chills.

Anita Schiffman Holzberg
