Stuck in race of time.

Courtesy





Storm brewing around
She stays still amidst chaos
Stuck in race of time





There's nothing worse than being stagnant, while everybody seems to be moving in a pace faster than ever. But then, a short stop in a long run could do good in hindsight!






This Haiku is written for the Haiku Heights. The prompt for the week is 'STORM'.

    Sometimes its better to stay still when the storm is busy devastating :) But getting stuck for a long time is definitely not good! Good Haiku :)

    Sometimes it is better to storm the storm too, when the storm feels at its weakest. So you won't be stagnant and reach a little ahead.

    A short stop in a long rain could also do good! :)

    I like that last line...almost a contradiction too ~

    This image of an instance of stillness in what is otherwise chaos is quite moving. Thank you for this, and thank you for visiting my blog.

    Maintain sanity in an environment of chaos. That probably is true in many situations. Sadly it's not easy to counter. Nicely Pranita!

    Standing still in the midst of chaos sounds calming, centering. I like that idea!

    There's some benefits in just being still and letting things around you pass by. As long as we don't pause too long, we'll never feel left behind but actually renewed and revitalized.

    Stuck in race of time - that is a wonderful line. Perhaps because time actually doesn't exist outside of a little "gadget" in our brain.

    Staying still amidst chaos - I like that. I've been bored with corny drama lately.

    What if storm doesn't let you stay still, It will eventually catch up and rob you off your stillness! very thought provoking haiku
