The Breath Of Life
To smell The Sun
to feel The Wind
to breathe the Fresh Air from within
...
Grow old with you?
Come on, sit down on my knees
I'll tell you about the butterflies and the bees
Now I am still young forever
...
Below the water surface
I put down my foundations
to build a house
with a tiny room
...
Inspired by The Lord
(Psalm 133: 3)
How pleasant to live in harmony
...
Last night so cold my dear,
I'd been waitin' you came not to my ear
where were you, my love
gone I was shocked, prayed to God above
...
Dear Dr. Pintu Mahakul,
Heartiest CongratulationsTo You!
...
Your voice is like music to the ears
your whisper is like the soften breeze
you may wander daily anywhere, but never lose the way
I'll remain still healthy even though I sleep outside in the hay
...
Good Morning, Good Noon, Good Afternoon and Good Evening,
For Peace of Mind
...
Love is love as we all understand
as far as our mind and heart can comprehend
it is the most caring heart at hand
and the sweetest mind to understand
...
THE PROLOGUE
Rose Marie is her name Juan-Austin her surname.
Rare Jewel is the title of honour given to her earlier
I try to create an Acrostic for Poem Hunter's most elegant and beautiful poetess,
...
Back From Beauteous Normandy….
I still remember the light blue skies
touches the bright seablue horizon
...
I have heard this from a good friend
and I regard that story as precious and very important
so I have mine like this in an Essay Poem:
...
I shall compose a Song for thee
a loveliest Song of my Heart
each day I will do the best part
to feel the least suppressed me
...
I Think Of You
(short words but thoroughly honest)
when I see dry leaves
...
Ik heb van alle drie jullie gedichten gelezen
En ik heb ware emotie en vreugde gevonden,
Jullie drie zijn geweldige dichteressen,
Diepe toewijding en doorzettingsvermogen,
...
Closer To His Being
In the great silence
in the quiet hours with God
...
I have heard that and I forgot to tell
Second day of Easter Holiday is a hell:
They told me through the phone:
Huge queues at Manchester Airport,
...
The Creator, oh yes!
I do this morning my opulent zest,
for He is Love
...
Finally, she has found her home,
a most beautiful, gigantic paradise-alike dome
...
turn on 'Protection against infection'
After the spies returned and
shared their bad report,
...
About the Poetess SYLVIA FRANCES CHAN, Dutch Poetess HER BIOGRAPHY: Sylvia Frances Chan, born in Jakarta on 22 November, Indonesia studied the English Language-and-Literature at the Trisakti University, Jakarta, Indonesia. She talks in several languages, her mother tongue is Dutch, then she speaks Indonesian, English, German, French, Malay, and the Jakarta Dialect. About her Languages: She understands almost all dialects in The Netherlands, and there are 11 or more dialects. Also the Liemers dialect and closest to the Liemers, the German border dialect is also called the Liemers, but with a German accent. That from the Dutch Liemers is with a Dutch accent. From all Dutch dialects, that of Friesland and Limburg, she knows as best. About her State of being: She is a lecturer for students through iPhone and an evangelist on Websites, and through iPhone, but never in churches. She loves her private time being alone with her Art, Work, and Study. For both, she has graduated. But she loves traveling too, all over the Globe. Everyone writes the word TRAVELLING with two l, but she prefers to write it with ONE letter l Some humorous stories from her experience in the USA: They say: you are a certified evangelist (one with a certificate) . She was surprised that the Americans put stress on the name 'certificated' or 'certified'. Just an observation, that´s all. The North Americans are very nice, they all greeted her every day with Have A Nice Day. Every time the same greetings when she left a restaurant, a shopping mall, or other department stores Being Grateful: She is still grateful to her late beloved Mum that her Mum was the one who pushed her in getting that certificate. Her Mum was an autodidact- evangelist, but one who truly believes in Jesus/God. Through her beloved Mum, she learned how to live closest to God. When her Mum died, she had no regrets, since every single wish her Mum had asked, she had done all, as a grateful daughter. They were quite busy times for her since her Mum resided in Indonesia and she herself in the Netherlands, a 13 or 14 hours flight one way to Indonesia When she came to settle in the NL, first in Leyden, Haarlem, and then she moved to the lovely town of D., where the sunshine and the sun rays are the longest in all four seasons throughout the year, and of all other provinces in the NL, but the winters are oftentimes the coldest, but dry weather, not as moist as in Leyden or Haarlem, two towns near the Noordzee (the North Sea) . Of course, they are moist because the North Sea (water) is their border. Her Other Activities: Besides poetry she also writes prose-poetry, story poems, narrations, and essays, she paints, draws, plays chess, does car-racing (Dallas, USA, and Zandvoort, Nederland) , Big balloons (San Diego) , walkings, plays tennis in Annual Competitions Mondially, skiing (Serfaus, Nauders, S.) , classical music, pop, R&B, reading. She had many painting exhibitions in and over the country. At the age of 15, she had her first group paintings-expositions and was the youngest exposed in the Balai Budaya of Jakarta, Indonesia. She won several first prizes at the age of 11 and 12 years. With her cartoons plus text-story and with her pen drawings, she was the headline of the JavaBode Youth Section and with her three essays in the Indonesian Observer Youth section too. In Chess-competitions too, there were no prizes for girls. The Org. knew that girls would never win, but she won and she accepted that first prize, though, for a boy, she thought she was the winner, the champion amongst boys and girls. Of course, she accepted that prize in fact for a boy. The Org. Committee announced that they had not a prize for a girl. Now this: she won the first prize too in a golf tournament, but this time she got the most beautiful and expensive prize. Different than with a tennis tournament, the golf tournament for amateurs was for both sexes together. She won from a male player, she got the trophy and he became the runner-up. She won a car racing for amateurs in Dallas, Texas (USA) . In tennis competitions, she won many first prizes in the lady's single and ladies' double. Her tennis team was constantly in the Top Ranking. Many champion cups filled her cupboard at her home. She won the mix too. A best friend said that IF she did not go to the university, she had won several Grand Slam tournaments like Wimbledon, Australian Open, or Roland Garros, and....she would have become a true professional and she would be traveling all over the world and her life would be entirely different. Now about her creating poetry. When she is creating, she does do that with a kind of humming a tune and that's why there is always a smooth flow in almost all her poems.

Poetry is our passion, our love, our life it is our lifeblood! Sylvia Frances Chan
As long as you remain the humble self, one day you will become special though, as sure as what!
Let the world turn angry let the world turn war as long as there is in your mind honesty peace be with you constantly
Peace be with you peace be with me peace be with eternity peace derived from the Holy Trinity peace be with you till eternity
serenity was needed in our heart's part since it darts too oft not loud but very soft
Survival of the fittest? Better say Survival of the Mortals (from the Survivals Of The Fittest)
Love is blind but it is palpable
The loudest they shout, the fakest they are! (Fake humanists)
Wars are caused by the myriads ego not by the WE but by the sum of all the 'i'
cience is constantly revolutionizing like unwilling horses in a destined competition
With faith, hope and love our future is secured above
Cooperation is The solid foundation (newest quote by Sylvia Frances Chan)
Samenwerking der talen: Zonder opwinding, is het leven niet interesting Sylvia Frances Chan, Dutch Poetess
In Beauty resides Love
