  1. A lovely moment keenly captured. L3 makes this poem emotionally effective.

    This is a good example of skillfully using the type II cutting technique (ying and yang). For more info. see "To the Lighthouse: Three Formulations about the Use of Cutting" (in the classic Japanese haiku tradition), which can be accessed at http://goo.gl/2aWfn
