Turkey

 Turkey

I am so full

My  belly is fat

A Turkish hotel

Can do just that

But over the Med

There are so many fights

While we swim

And visit beautiful sights

Rubble and death 

Just over this sea

While we sip our cocktails 

Just you and me

Families destroyed

Many displaced

While we slide the flumes

With a smile on our face

There is so much hunger

And disease

But after a delicious meal

We're relaxed and pleased

While we scuba dive 

To see pretty fish 

To stay alive and unharmed

Would be their only wish

The beautiful world

We'd love to see

Is now up in flames

You must hear our pleas
