Spreading The Risk Poem by Ima Ryma

Do not put all my eggs in one
Basket is an old adage that
I believe in and do not shun.
So when the grocery store I'm at,
I try to spread egg break risk out.
A cartoned dozen eggs I take,
And from the carton I reroute
Each egg to its own cart to make
It less likely that the eggs all
Would in a breakage danger be
From some sudden bumping or fall.
All twelve carts are then pushed by me.

Folks look at me crazy when I
Try to explain my reason why.
