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".

Beans for Breakfast - Anita Holzberg 

BEANS FOR BREAKFAST
   TURKEY CHILI
        COLD
   HAZELNUT COFFEE
I RUN TO THE PANTRY
   YOUR FACE NOT THERE
I RUN TO THE DOOR
    YOU ARE NOT KNOCKING
I RUN TO THE PATIO
     NO CHICKEN BARBECUING
         IN THIS STATE OF ALONENESS
                 I TAKE MY STANCE
              I RIGHT MY DREAMS
         IN TRUTH
              I HAD THE GREATEST LOVE
                   IN FACT
                   IT IS OVER
          IN THE MORNING I REMEMBER
                   WHAT I HAD
                        AND MOURN.
