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".

So Thankful - Anita Holzberg

In the sweet flow of light
  the day begins
I sit in my arm chair
  peering at the morning glories
taking in my orchid
in full sun

Days move forward
  Mid November approaching
I am thankful for everything
   family and friends
I am thankful for my students
  who are growing by leaps and bounds
I am thankful for my returning health

In these moments, the sky resounds
  and the trees reveal their beauty.
