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".

Up Early - Anita Hozberg

Up early
  grey cloud cover
I won't let that take away my spirits
  or the caterpillars that creep
      or the balloon man
         high or deep

Up early
    a poem writes herself
the popcorn of the mind remembers
     old movies
     Mom and Dad
     the drugstore
     meatball sandwiches on Thursday
     Park Avenue
     William Carlos Williams
     My 2 wheeler
     My black and white house

Up early
      too early to hear your voice
          but
      I hear it anyway

How are You?
