Between Friends: In the saturated sun flowered day

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".

In the saturated sun flowered day

I wake

at 4

feed the cats

sleep again til 7

open the curtains to direct sun

walk on the deck

the trumpet vines are blooming

and the snails raise their heads

a garden that goes on its own

"low maintenance"

like everything this summer

"low key"

as another day begins

a song in my heart

thinking of You.
