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".

Strength - Anita Holzberg

Once
            on the tree top
                     in a tree house

                 on top of the sky

                           I remembered

                    how infamous we were

                          how indestructible

                                   how strong

                         I have never forgotten that

                        strength is   p o w e r

                             strength is doing something well
                         even if you do not want to

                               strength is that spirit hovering
                                     like an eagle

                                the wingspread can make it happen.
