Fishing
along coast of Klang river
Those
bygone years of an era
It
never occurred to worry about crocodiles
Floating
silently along the coastal river..
I
remembered a Malay woman
She
would sit under a tree to fish
Everyday
while I cycled back home
Under
the shade patiently waiting
Once
I stopped by to ask
She
said she could catch many
About
crocodiles in the Klang river
It
was just a story to tell
I
went to a sawmill factory
Behind
it was the Klang river
Though
I didn't catch any fish
It
was the fun holding the string
Listening
to the vibration
The
tension pulling in the water
It
taught about patience
Waiting
to catch the fishes
When
news spread about crocodiles
No
fishing along the river coast
Only
watched at the Klang double decker bridge
On
days when school was closed
