An Icon Poem by Gajanan Mishra

An icon-Shashi Kapoor,
A movie icon.
A rare actor,
A thorough gentleman,
Perfect family man-
Shashi Kapoor.

A romantic hero - Shashi Kapoor,
This original superstar
cannot be faded away
From the heart.
Shashi Kapoor will be
Remembered for his films;
Junoon, Deewar, Kabhie Kabhie,
Trishul, Shakespeare-wallah,
Householder and Siddhartha.

A prolific star - Shashi Kapoor,
No death dares to touch, I am sure.
