To celebrate the arrival of my MINI last week:

Blow to my psyche
in glistening Black and Blue
MINI makes smiles

LSD is good
corner hallucinations
a thing of the past

Run flats not so bad
engine, though completely stock
yields motoring fun

New MINI owner
no more waiting, now we find
one satisfied dude

My MINI needs a name

MINI needs a name
Mine hasn't told me yet
Waiting for insight

minims, we did this back in 2002: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ighlight=Haiku

These were two of mine (keep in mind that my first MINI was a Cooper named MINIclo):

1.
I caught a brief glimpse,
The chrome grille and large limpid eyes
Drew me to the cult.

2.
Little MINIclo
Running through the twisty bits
Happiness is mine.

Cheers!
Clover

Done. Threads merged, although through the several software upgrades/changes, some of the actual original complete posts are missing, but not their smilies!
