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 Piece of Life - Anita Holzberg

Life moves us forward
  all's quiet for New Year's Eve
No faces 
Walk away with the coming of the dawn
I feet my cat Picchu in the dark
 and find the bowl and she eats


Life moves on bumps and grinds
I have not left the house in a few days
Nothing changes
Dishes in the sink
Bills on the table
Packages to mail
Christmas presents to return


I drink my hazelnut cinnamon coffee
The cinnamon spikes my memory
I do not wish to go back
The rim of the wheel pushes me 
Into a new Year


Cheer Cheers

Anita S. Holzberg
