Sorry Officer,
I was only trying to
break my MINI in.

Flashing red lights seen
It's my car's fault, not mine sir
MCS, too fast

Sorry SUV
but you were going to slow
Just had to scoot around

Curse you, MCS
Day dreaming about you when
I should be working


See those glassy eyes,
that slack jaw and the drooling?
MINI on the brain

Nobull, I'll keep with your MINI oh MINI theme

MINI oh MINI
On the other side of the pond
The only thing that can stop me from thinking about you
Is a really hot blonde!

Silver butterfly
fluttering over highways
my ray of sunshine

Bright MINI Cooper
you shine and glisten, my star
together at last

Beautiful MINI
a shining star to guide me
show me paradise

Shimmering silver
my heart is racing for you
bring me ecstasy

Sleek, shiny, and new
you bring a smile to my lips
enlighten my soul

Curvaceous MINI
grrr baby, so very grrr
shall we **** now or…

Does this count:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Until my yellow MINI gets here
I too am blue

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!

Kudos to Clo for actually being able to use the word limpid in a sentence.....
(I couldn't remember what it meant....and I had to go look it up.....)

Cheers all!

You know the rules... seventeen sylables or less, three lines, evoking a memory, thought, feeling....

A break between storms...
Washed and dried my MINI.
Short lived perfection!

Your turn!

Priorities, friend!
While you are washing your car
I'm out motoring!
