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".

I Will Know My Name - Anita Holzberg


In time I will know my name
 the name of my granddaughter 
   Evelyn Rose
sweet, innocent, happy
I will hold her in my arms
I will carry her from room to room
I will feed her
and let her hold her bottle

In time I will know my name
Evidenced in truth found
among the papers
among the rafters

In the spot where books were written
years ago I will know my name
my name among my writing

In time I will believe I have written
  throughout my life
and become more from the writings

In time I will know my name.
