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".

From the Journals - some Insights - Anita Holzberg


Searching for fireflies
  butterflies appear
Fine honed salt on the other side of the moon

Searching for fireflies
   the world opens up
      song and lyric appear
   in the humdrum of the day
   making it fly by  

Searching and yearning my entire life
   The search will never end
     The yearning will be over

I found something divine in the shadows
     of a new day
I found the real sense of knowing is knowing not
I found that writing to wellness can create dreams
   my doorstep is filled with well wishers
      in the being of the being
         soot replaced by clear water
             flowing in the background
                      of a life that keeps
                         evolving
             I went nowhere
                    I was everywhere.
