Miles More To Grow

Squeezing hands
  Winking eyes
Making faces
  Going places!

Delighting in found-gardens
  Wedged into settings urban
The world about us, wholly ours
  Strangers' smiles, no delusions...

Not too much wear and tear on this
  though it's surely miles and miles ago ~ 
But could it be that stretched before us
  lie many miles more to grow!

These will be 'Frequent Growers' Miles,' I guess. Thanks, Geoffrey. ~ Gershon
