Did you hear the whisper
that floated by
that you thought
was your mind
playing games
as usual ?
consumed
as you were
by the noise
inside your head
did you hear the whisper ?
that you tried to catch
but wafted away
even before you could listen ?
did you hear the whisper
like a gentle song
in a distant land
trying to come through
in the roaring traffic
of everyday existence
did you hear the whisper ?
Believe me
there comes the time
when you
eat, drink and sleep whisper
as they say
then it is
no longer from
any distant land
nor comes or goes
is not bound by
the words we have created
everyday existence?
that seems like
a whisper
on this now
rather whisperless whisper
The wind said I am you
I said I am you
The wind stopped…
I looked…
I walked…
The wind looked…
The wind blew…
I stopped…
When the wind turned back,
I was blowing away…
Bliss!
Yes.
But did you, another?
its with you
all the time
beyond the concept of time
it is you and
before you
it does not float by
it always is
in its presence
you fall and rise
at retreat..ask
‘questions’
who are they working for?
who keeps them in their job
can you pass them the pink slip
deny what is – and they live
accept and they never were
when there is no question
there is nowhere to reach
nowhere to arrive
but to see
you always have been
what you are looking for –
is already where you are looking from
Wafted in my destined sea
a whisper, a dream not to be
lingering whispers, lingering face
etched on waves, an eternal chase
.
.
I question the whisper,
ye come like the gentle breeze
softly all my dreams ye seize
tell me, tell me
.
.
Where do I begin?
Where do I go?
lashing from
.
‘shore’
.
‘to shore’
.

Hiya Shekhar…
that strum a chord somewhere inside ..loved it
Hi Shekhar,
It’s shameful of me to invade your blog and write with such a selfish motive. This comment has little to do with the poem above, and more to do with getting a window to speak to you.
I have paid due respects to your writing work by blogrolling you sometime back. And love all your analysis as much as your films.
Coming to the main reason, without beating around the bush. I have an interesting script, that I think you should direct. I would want to share it with you. Please do mail me at rajeshramaswamy@hotmail.com, if you can pardon this breach of etiquette.
Honestly, I would have preferred doing it in a more professional manner, if only I knew how.
A whisper?… those were just the auntyjis in my head gossiping about me.
Time to break out the psychosis drugs.
Okay that was nice. Both. Your poem and the happy drugs 🙂
I’m kidding! I’m Kidding.
Your poem was nice.
go Rehaman go, i am so proud. didn’t thought i will feel so good about it.
fragile.
Dil sey dua ke you follow that whisper trace like the pied piper and may it lead you to your dream.
Chotey muh badi baat, sorries.
No translation.
Sometimes I get those wisper with the halo and sometimes with the horns
Hi Shekar,
Is the poem for Suchitra? How is she? I think both you guys are very artistic.
Sorry about the comment I’d just made. Concerning your personal life, I was not in the loop. Only now, my colleague told me.
Hi,
I came across your blog sometime back found it quite interesting.
Yes I did hear the whisper … the wind was strong enough to blow it all the way to this side of the world 🙂 he he
It is amazing how the cosmos can carry the smallest of whispers when the loudest of shouts seemingly cannot reach it sometimes.
Dear Mr. Kapur, I’m sure you’re aware that your articles and poems are regularly published on another blog/website called http://www.kalugu.com I assume you have specifically authorised this publication. The interesting thing about http://www.kalugu.com is that, other than your articles, the only other articles published on it are ones in support of the LTTE. There is an occasional Indian movie review, but the owners of the blog have a single minded focus on the Sri Lankan issue with a definite pro-LTTE bias. Mr. Kapur Sir, I’m a big fan of yours. I also hate the LTTE which is responsible for the deaths of over 1,200 Indian soldiers and the forcible recruitment of so many child soldiers. Please do not allow http://www.kalugu.com to republish your articles on their blog which gives it a balanced air, something it doesn’t deserve.
Hi Shekhar,
Hope all is well. I wanted to introduce our company, and see if we can develop a new Shekhar series for the iPhone and other handheld devices for your Productions. We are a full service software development group based out of San Rafael, California with our developers in Russia. We believe, we can take your concept and do end to end development for any game and develop it for the iPhone. The links below are some of the things we developed for the iPhone.

From our experience, we can expand your movie introductions using trailers to include hand-held led devices, the iPhone being an untapped channel. Please let me know if we can become an extension to your development arm and work for you in this project. I can be reached at 415.218.6900 or email at kumar@davaconsulting.com. Our expertise also extends to the latest handheld devices including BREW, Symbian, J2ME, Xbox, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Android (google). The best part is we can develop / convert your existing productions to the iPhone and give you options to expand your marketing channel distribution to other platforms as well. Call or email me for more details. We appreciate your time and look forward in working with you.

Definitely
There is a place somewhere
Where all our souls meet
When our bodies have wilted away
With all our needs and greeds
I can imagine all of us
Floating like the clouds
As now we would be unburdened
No weights pulling us down.
We shall all gather by the brook
And talk of forgotten tales
Of how we lived our lives on earth
And now we live on gales.
We shall softly hold hands
So to keep us close
And let the sun snuggle inside us
Then lets all of us doze.
cheers
vaishali
Yes
The whisper gets louder
louder to a chaos
And then it settles
To be louder again
Yes, we do hear the whisper
It often calms
and often radiate too!!!
yes my mind hear the wishper,
the wind floating.
Is wind playing games,
I wonder, enduring whirling pains.
with the head turning pale,
i ponder if it is air or the natural tale.
Then I think to unwind and shake the booty,
and here it goes with the gentle beauty.
Ahh, I feel relieved,
oh god, what a mystery you have concieved!
ssshh..
the whisper,
ssshh..
the whisper
silences my very being.
The whisper. Of silence.
