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".

Small Messages - Anita Holzberg


Instant messages
       I hear them all
           small voices
                 You sat in your wheel chair
                        in a group class
 I brought the Starbucks
       You thanked me
           You kissed me goodbye on the lips
                    and said
              "I love you, too."

                       Small messages can make a life
             can be the singing forth of a life
                    You are on the road to getting well.

                  Not a small message.

Anita Schiffman Holzberg
