I drive a lime aphid
along a grey ribbon,
through rippling hills
and valleys of
green velvet
along teal satin waters
beneath a blue silk sky
dusted with tufts of batting fluff.

(The aphid is actually a Beetle, but the colour is right). 😉

The lake is charcoal flannel serge
bound with an ermine edge
beneath a quilt batting sky.
