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".

JIM - by Anita Holzberg

Touched
  I put my arms on your shoulders 
      you in the wheel chair
         you clasp my hands
              I said, "I love you"
                  you heard it
             " Thank you kindly for
         your kindness", Jim said
               


                    At the assisted living
             the halls washed 
                   the lobby bright
                        the rooms
            a standard bed
                       I hung around
                            49 minutes
                       a long visit
                              a kiss on the lips
                    Life does not get any better
                             than this.
