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 Truth - Anita

In truth
 the turtle does not fall far from the rose
  the white of the wedding stays
     a beacon for all time
  the stars come out in the Autumn Sky
  the light is fading faster in the day
  the chilly mornings bring the new season
  the house I honor stays with me
  the world is in turmoil
  the peace we have is what we create
    with ourselves


In truth
  the rainbow
    shines her light upon me
         and my family
       we are humbled by it
            run with it
                     as I say prayers
         every Saturday
                 the rainbow now fades
                          life is still
                                       good
                       in truth.
