Here's something I've written in a completely different style to things of late. Not quite sure what to make of it tbh. Bit retro - but that's my age!
But I do like trying out different style challenges now and again... so thought I'd run with it for now.

Pink Flamingo Cabriolet
When our Nan died, well of course we cried
But that day she saw when she talked before
She said don’t put me in a sad black car
Make it fabulous, like a movie star
On my last drive, my final mile
Remind the world that your nan had style
With a cheeky smile and a wicked wink
She said when I go, make sure I go in
Pink
In a pink flamingo cabriolet
In a pink flamingo cabriolet
Hey
She said have a ball now at my wake
Smear pink icing on a big fat cake
Play Elvis, Motown, c’mon Chuck Berry
Bit of Northern Soul and all get merry
Remember the good times we all had
As I watched you grow, now I can’t be sad
Life’s bitter sweet, that’s what I think
But when I go, make sure I go in / Pink
So we got that car for our Nan the star
In her final mile, yeah the girl had style
And neighbours clapped as they lined the street
For the passing queen of the disco beat…
Well we don’t know about a grand plan
But we’d be so much less without our Nan
Cos she taught us joy and she made us think
So we’d seize life and we would all love
Pink
