Write poetry about how great your M4 feels or about how 
the M6 meter saved (or failed) your ass under some interesting
shooting situation. 

Alexey
==========================
	Alexey,
	what a civilising suggestion.

My M4 feels great,
No I don't mean grate
It's really first rate 
That my M4's my mate

My M6 is black
When I shoot I attack
I'm on the right track
For not sending it back

My M3 is chrome
And I keep it at home
Except when I roam
Near sand sea and foam

I had an M2
That was far from being new
But when it was stolen
The air turned blue

I bought an M1
For a pittance, my son,
Repairing, once done,
Meant I'd have some fun

My M5 was battered
Almost quite knackered
I should have considered
Getting it lacquered.

I started with a Two
One of the few
All of my Leicas
Have never been new

Jem

(actually I've never had an M4, and I only have the M6 and M3 now)
