i come here to look <br />for the hearts of the city <br />and thank God find <br />them in your frantic frantic rush <br />out to the Straits of Malacca <br />spilling joy and laughter <br />the way spices and tin were <br />sailed out from here years ago <br /> <br />i could hear the riotious tinkling <br />sounds you chime so splendidly <br />from below the bridge between the <br />Central Market and the Dayubumi <br />that looms so perfectly up into sky <br /> <br />the rain has stopped, and your <br />rush is fast, swift, reeling, <br />waves spiralling and swaming <br />onto those at the fore, over zealous <br />children hurrying out to field <br />to have their evening game <br /> <br />i stay put to savour all <br />the cheers and good vibes <br />your song is spreading <br />to all of us, the song that says <br />all the way from the heart of the Peninusla <br />'have fun, have fun, have fun just have fun.' <br /> <br />Yes, yes, Klang River, i will have fun, <br />just have fun, come rain or shine <br />the way you share yours <br />all around, day and night <br />night and day, all the way <br />out to the golden straits<br /><br />john tiong chunghoo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/visit-malaysia-year-poem-klang-river-kuala-lumpur/
