He would buy broken used bamboos
Wash these with fresh water with care
Soak these overnight
To carve out screens, his unique ware
In the morning he would cut
Pieces of equal length
Then divide these flat, retaining some strength
Unused portions, he would stock on his hut
Yellow long strips thus retrieved
Woven with strong string in a special weave
Matching colour cloth binding around
Made the craftsman’s screens sound
