Bharathiyar has written 24 individual poems.One such is on the greatest artist and painter Ravi varma ,who has moulded the Hindu perceptions on the images of gods and goddesses.I have relied heavily on his portraits and paintings to illustrate my blogs . It is there fore fitting that I express my gratitude by translating a talented poets admiration of a equally talented artist.
God has gathered and cooked moon beams ,
To be drunk by this artist,
He created nectar that could be shared by all only through this genius of eternal fame,
He created the white elephant to enhance Indra's stature,
He created beauty in flowers, in the blue sky and on damsels comely coutenances,
Only to be smelt and absorbed by the inner self and intelligence of Ravi varma!
