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".

A Love Story - Anita Holzberg 


In Winter I will find you
  hiding under a pile of snow
     glancing at the sunrise
  carrying tulips
     before dusk

In Winter I will see your face again
    beautiful in the dawn's early light
 handsome in the fleeting rain
    strong in the psalm of songs

In Winter I will hold your hand
    as the sweat of our years
         melt
     in one handshake
          as the wind blows
   through my hair
       as dancing is the same
          as walking
I no longer walk on eggs
         a straight shot to your
       heart
memory does not impede me
I take my chances
as I walk into your arms
a sweetness never ever imagined.
