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".

Of Thee I Sing - Anita Holzberg


In thee I sing
  In everything about Thee
     let freedom ring
  for the table that is before me
  for Picchu my wonderful cat
  for friends I meet near and far
  for the loving of life
  for the trusting of self

of thee I sing
   Recovery is the physical and the heart
             together

       In recovery I sing
           marching on to freedom's path

       Its the path we make for ourselves

              Of Thee I sing.
