Stuck

A shape less piece of drift wood
Floating on a calm lake
A lonely shoot of a lotus
Staring solemnly at the sky

A single muddied pebble
Lying still on the shore
A broken strand of spider silk
Hanging motionless on a branch

A world of perfect stillness
Hoping against all hope
For a slight wiff of wind
A tiniest notion of movement
