Between Friends: Restless

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".

I salute the morning

quiet time to write my heart

I salute the memory of the Shatz house

that I visited many times to celebrate holidays

They were my second family, my home

I salute Phyllis whose words and deeds were enormously beautiful

I salute Sol whose brilliance shone like a star in the midnight sky

They are gone now.

they took me in when I had no where to go

they comforted me

I walked with Phylis ten years

We talked about everything

I celebrate Joel and Tami and Neal

They were my family

I want to be there for them

Even now.
