Dr.V.K. Kanniappan (17.10.1944 / Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India)

The beauty for the cultivating land is attributed
to be paddy and sugarcane plantations;

The beauty for the pond is the
presence of widespread lotus flowers;

The beauty for the chaste womanhood
is the inherent bashfulness in her behaviour;

The beauty for an individual human being,
- said to come for the praise in his afterlife -
is the virtue by which he lived and gained
in the society! - (naanmaNik katikai 9)
