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 Poem - By Anita

In countenance I come
   contained in feeling
        grounded in fact
               surreal in expectations
                   not withstanding
                         the price of peace

              I take my punches
                    revenge in logic
                       retreat to my easy chair
                             never ever giving up

                      A lion and her cubs
                         the defense is always there
                                the offense is coming
                                          clearer
                                      like frost on a pumpkin
                                           flakes of reason
                                                  appear.
