Once, for a Moment

Yesterday they walked together side by side wearing their boots and waders for only the second time as they followed Nate up river to a new fishing spot. They carried their rods at their sides and spoke to each other as they stepped across the grey rocks beneath the dark pines beside the river. They spoke to each other as they walked, and as I walked far behind them trying to keep pace, I was happy and I wished I could keep this picture in my mind forever.
