Between Friends: Lasting Friendship

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 a wink of an eye

I meet you again

Your face radiant

Your laugh lines present

Your heart on your sleeve

In a flutter of a robin's wing

I see you again

Your mood not so good

Your eyes crying

Your forehead drooping

Lasting friendship

We view colors

We are the we

We see the nuances of a life

Not too many can we call good friends

The ones I have, I cherish

I support them in their darkest moments

I celebrate with them in their joy

I am grateful for they grace my life
