Sriprasad

Hathi challam challam=हाथी चल्लम चल्लम - New Delhi: Jugnoo Prakashan, 2023. - 24p. ill.; pbk.: 15cm.

Sriprasad ji saw an elephant walking. One step of an elephant triggers a wave-like movement that runs through his entire body from his trunk to the tail. Just the way water would give movement to the word you write on it. Gradually, the word merges with water in a rhythmic movement. An elephant's movement also begins and ends gradually. The poet has captured this beauty and rhythm of the movement in sounds and words have readily accommodated. You can feel the magic in sounds like हल्लम हल्लम, चल्लम चल्लम. The poem elegantly weaves together seeing and the expression of what one saw.

Proiti Roy's illustration re-create this movement.
