Fifteen Eggs, Three Trays

Morning light found fifteen eggs waiting like a quiet little flock on the bench.
Three trays stood ready. Spike asked: how many in each if we share fair?
Fifteen shared by three is five each, Spike said. Not six because one egg looked famous.
Suzy counted tray one: five. Tray two: five. Tray three: five — honest and level.
Five and five and five make fifteen — she checked by pointing once per egg.
Pavlova supervised like a fluffy accountant and added zero eggs by staring.
Adventure Cap wanted to race the trays. Thinking Cap habit said walk soft — shells are not toys.
Little Thunder sniffed and kept his mahogany distance from omelette ambitions.
Kids: fifteen crayons in three pots — five in each pot. Count each pot once.
Farm maths is grouping that living things can trust.
Tools remind Spike to plan the share. Spike still carries the tray level.
Care means counting before you boast.
Fifteen. Three trays. Honest.
Fifteen ÷ three = five each.
