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".

I Set My Compass - Anita 

Precious memories
   Picchu is apart of them
      a "fraidy" cat
          is under my toes

     No one knows
what path life will take

No one knows the course

I set my compass

Sometimes I have to throw it away

A GPS not functioning

You were on my path

The years we spent amazing

The years we spent together

I touch a leaf now
  pinch my waist

You are not here

I am left to carry our memories

I will,

I promise

I promise.

Anita Schiffman Holzberg
