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".

Recovery - Anita Holzberg

The rose and the thorn is one
  the bud that comes in Spring
        will come
The tread marks on the road far
The illusions that we keep dear
The antithesis of happiness is
  a place I do not want to go
The red ribbons of Christmas past
   go back in storage
Time moves quickly over us
The New Year brings her own set of
   priorities
I sit unable to walk far
  22 houses is my walk
        the world does not wait for 
my recovery
I do.
