the store limit of ten cartons of eggs

i see a woman
carrying ten cartons
of eggs
in her arms.
brown, white,
organic,
and farm raised,
made by uncaged chickens
who were
able to stroll
around the grounds.
ten cartons
is the posted limit for this store.
she's smiling
from ear to ear
as she sashays to the counter.
she's almost glowing
with contentment.
i have no idea,
what's going on,
but Easter is near.
