15

15 first entered my head,

when I was in kindergarten.

F-i-f-t-e-e-n

I had learned to spell it.

I progressed to a different stage,

where I learned that

Six plus nine equals fifteen,

seven plus eight equals fifteen.

In primary school,

I learned that

three times five equals fifteen.

The combination of a sparkling one,

and the curvy five,

is sure better than

one and a four,

both which consist of straight lines.
