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".

Crystals Exploding in the Sky - Anita Holzberg


Saturday night
     comes
 the rain coming down
   my eyes burn
my heart affixes itself to the truth
 

         Writers have that trump card

This morning's student
        Misaki
   doing her word search
       together
     like life depended on it
7 years old in the moment of words
       concepts and ideas
    pushing hard for the answers
          I loved that devotion
      That excitement.....
            to finish and get it right.

     Now, after the dishes are done
          a dinner eaten

        I remember that moment
   crystals exploding in sky!

(Writers have the trump card.)
