Poems
Jun 2020
Girder bridge across the Ulu Pandan River.
From below looking at the bridge.
the bridge of yesterday is reached.
Hanging over the Ulu Pandan water flows.
Sky-blue and streaked with high clouds.
Calmly and peacefully the bridge shows.
Nothing is perpetual.
This place is my childhood soul.
That moment of childhood cheers.
Come and go like fear,
and sadness like tear.
Note what progress has thrown.
Note what current has hold.
Note what the future will unfold.
The "Upstream (Ulu)
wild screwpine trees" (Pandan)
of yesterday is long lost.
Only the green of the banks
Remind us of its glorious past.
