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".

The Gift of Peace - by Anita 


Tomorrow never comes
  Today is the essence

A bird lands
  A bird flies away

Seasons roll

A rose blooms

An orchid dies

A child cries

A newborn coos

A sentence is born

A tree grows

Truth comes when we least expect it

Time moves

Letters fall from words

Bugles play

Truth comes from the trees

Nature shows us how to live

Now.
