Four Friends

Four good friends, shared many a wonderful moments. Some moments contained laughter, some contained love. But, there was one particular time, that the moment that was shared was so profoundly special, that they each tried to capture it.

Amy pulled out her camera and tried to capture it in black and white. She loved seeing the contrasts in that particular moment and all of the shades of gray in between. That was how she would always remember it, many years from now, looking at that photo, framed and always kept on the main wall of all of her future dwellings.

Brenda always carried her pencils and charcoals on hand for moments just like this. She put the moment to paper. A moment like this deserved the paper of the finest sort. She wept when she was finished, she not only captured the moment perfectly, she captured perhaps the most perfect moment of her life.

Carly's form of choice was to distill the moment down to its purest poetic form. As the feelings of the moment translated into verse, she found that she captured the moment into a sonnet. A sonnet had never come together so quickly and beautifully before. She knew down to the core of her being, she would never compose a sonnet so effortlessly again.

Doug took in the moment in his mind, and took in his very best friends as they went to capture the moment before it fled. He took in how Amy studied the moment to get the perfect shot; she was so beautiful when she held that seriousness. He took in Brenda as she whirled her pencils over the paper; her wilds were always set free when she was drawing anything. He took in Carly penning her sonnet; she always seemed more alluring when she was lost in capturing verse. Doug wanted to capture it in a different way, but for him, the moment contained his friends trying to capture it perfectly as much as the part of the moment being captured by them. So he instead tucked it into his heart, the entirety of the moment and what followed after.

Four friends captured a special moment shared, each in their own way. Four friends marveled as to each other's technique of capturing the moment. Four friends continued to live and laugh and love, another special moment cementing their friendship further.
