I like this
I like "green moment"
makes me think in this context of the mathematicians' moments what with
knots and canopies and canopy
and I like littlest
which I wouldnt say, but makes me think of the late Dennis Potter's last
(?) interview where, knowing he was dying, looked out the window at, I
think, plum blossom and called it the blossomest blossom
