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".

Life Is For The Brave Heart - Anita Holzberg

Life is for the brave heart
   Life is for the brave
        with a heart

Life is not for sissies
  The burning feet return
       every night
      I just grin and bear it

Sometimes it gets so unbearable
     I just weep

Sometimes I call Bill and he listens
     He takes away the pain

Friends mean a lot

They can take away the pain
They offer love and acceptance 

Life is for the brave heart

I have been very brave

I have moved mountains with my mind and body

Yes, I have.

Anita Schiffman Holzberg
