As always I look for some positive news
When writing of Trump’s escapades every day
In Riyadh Trump’s speech expressed our nation’s views
On interests we share against terrorists’ ways
He spoke to the leaders Islamic state’s
The summit of fifty, of joint partnership
To combat the evil of ISIS so great
Ignoring that most are true dictatorships
The next day in Israel, back to himself,
Trump managed to place both his feet in his mouth
Implying ’twas Israel’s secrets we held
He braggingly told senior Russians about
For seven more days Trump will be on this trip
Crossing fingers and toes, we can hope for the best
But sanguine I’m not, Trump most surely will quip
Saying things that will put foreign ties to the test
