Between Friends: In The Interim

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".

The light filters through the trees

How many years typing my poems

My yard a big part of my existence

The trees have been my shelter

The deck my refuge

The roses blooming my jewels

How fortunate I am to have this yard

The days are beset with health challenges

Yet, I find the space to be grateful

I find the time to recognize what is good

I read now with 3.25 readers

The Ritual Bath and it is the first real book

I have read in 2 years

The story compelling

In finding solutions I find the strength

To walk, to go another mile

My world is good

How about yours?
