Srirangam Srinivsa Rao was a poet par excellence. command over language, commitment to people and experimentation in the light of international literature were his strengths.His words are valuable to any young poet. He says
"Novelty plus Humanity is equal to poetry"
"The unity betrween mind and heart
is the sole quality of greatpoetry".
"Man is a seeker of material world
Good poetry must open his eye of knowledge
Daily routine to perennial truths
An epic must touch every item
Delights and enligtens
Moves like a great stream
Impacts and attracts like a magnet
Grindstone that softens and shines our hearts."
