The Dutch Golden Age Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Jeroen Bosch was never a Lucas van Leyden
since Lucas is oft past his own era
and so were Raphael and Albrecht Dùrer
Dùrer was German like the fuehrer

after you have read their cultural background and history
certainly, you will hide Der Fuehrer and boast with Dùrer

but now we are celebrating Hieronymus Bosch
the same Jeroen Bosch for us in the Netherlands
I have created here a brevity
about these glamorous celebrities

surely there was Rembrandt van Rijn
and Johannes Vermeer too
since Gerard Lievens was called by the King
and Rembrandt the elder of the two
left alone behind, that was not so kind
the difference was, Gerard a genius
in his time they painted very refinedly
and that´s the art of Lievens

This era was the Famous Dutch Golden Age
every grass on the garden-fields has its own page

They stand, each grass solitarily
did never belong to the crowd
had solid gold constantly, truth be told
each painter in his sobriety
standing high amongst his golden celebrity....

Photography taken by Sylvia Frances Chan from Nature's Wonders,
looked like a Leonardo da Vinci's design, but this is nature.
