Sum of Seven

I walked back inside from the park chill and hopped up onto the oak nightstand to unwind before bedtime. Resting inside a shallow ceramic trinket dish were two vintage wooden dice with crisp, inset white pips! Naturally, a mathematical examination was in order. Using both green hands, I rotated one die across its corners to inspect the dot distribution. To my sheer delight, opposite faces adhered to universal cubic law: one opposite six, two opposite five, and three opposite four, every opposing pair summing precisely to seven! Captivated by such reliable geometric harmony, I nudged the pair side by side with the matching fours facing skyward, gave my top hat a polite tip to the tidy cubes, and settled down for the night.
