His hand touched the inside
of a soft canal
that peddled its way
through the eastern countryside

With its current moving calmly
He stood next to its side
like a small irish clover
on the hills
facing away from the patches of clouds
that Sunday morning

He was soft with his eyes
rather a son of the winds tide
tied together with the cities cobbled streets
corners that touched the skies tepid lights

Each morning,
he sighed with his brown handkerchief
by his side
brown, neatly folded
in his shirts right pocket
resting along the same curbside
across from the small, yellow shaded cafe

He watched from the inside of his thoughts
inside his rustic home
his hands never came along the summers warm heart
rather, they waited until the frigid temperatures of winter
came barreling down the cobbled streets
as his lips quivered until a tear
burst onto the small lines of his hands
and they finally left his pockets
rising above the mist
racing down the cobbled streets
towards the rivers right hand.

I really enjoyed looking through your mind's eye at the mind's eye of another. Very intriguing.
