He sat there with his arms folded
Sitting next to his cold hands
like a dog pedaling in the snow next to it's owner.

His young, brittle, teeth chattered
as he lay hunched under his fathers arm.
Hs hair lay parted between his fathers lap and coat,
and his father sang the song
That resonated every Friday Night.

The boy watched as the road continued to sleep,
the land was so empty, like a ballroom after one last dance,
and his eyes couldn't glance, couldn't fathom
another a second, minute
That festered between light and night,
And so he watched with his eyes closed

Picturing a spring like sight,
sitting atop his fathers shoulders.

Beautifully done, Tomer.  A special sharing moment, unencumbered by redundancies or froth.  Excellent.
