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 Truth - Anita Holzberg



In truth the door bell rings but twice
In truth the hurt we have mends
In truth the swinging door returns
We are humble what is G-d's plan

In truth the day will be sunny and cold
How appropriate for a funeral
In truth time will pass and heal all wounds

We stand at attention
Our minds are fixed
We are fully aware of what happened

In truth the day begins with Memory
I loved the Shatz family like my own
I loved their caring and kindness

Take what you can
give what you can

Life is about that
And nothing more.

Anita Schiffman Holzberg
