Vyakhyana Saram:
Swami Desikan's speech became sweet and divine because it came out of the lotus like eyes of Sri Ranga Nachchiyar. He says they are like the bee that left the lotuses that are Sri Mahalskhmi's divine eyes. Having left these lotuses, it is now fattening itself due to the great pleasure of drinking the sweet nectar which are the words of Swami Pillai Lokacharyar.

He got his ability to write divine poetry due to the blessings from the divine look of Sri Mahalakshmi. That capacity gained its purpose by praising Pillai Lokacharyar.
