"birthday miles" ... my shoes are worn out I've walked so far. But, with every yard and mile I pluck up a memory so do have a smile. (Don't know about that wrinkle thing, though.) Thanks, Linda, I enjoy it!

Thanks David. I'm glad you enjoyed this. Yes, it is the miles, not the years that yield the deepest memories. Maybe walk barefoot, to save those shoes! LOL :)

As we get older, life gets harder, and each year makes us wonder about the upcoming year more so than in youth. Won't be long before my 8th decade. Thank you for your participation in my contest. I enjoyed reading your entry. Very creative way to go. Sara

Linda, I love the rhyme myself although tricubes dot no use rhyme. I thank God for the memories that unfortunately some people lose over time.
