The World's Favourite Number Seven

spiritual and cultural numerical figure 
                               thought to be as of the heaven
                                constellation of seven sisters 
                               reminds the days of the week
                               consists colours of the rainbow
                               divine notes on musical scale
                           total number of seas and continents
                        snow white runs off to live with dwarves
                             seven brides for seven brothers
                            Shakespeare’s man of seven ages 
                           Sinbad the Sailor had same voyages
                     Ian Fleming had the right ring for James Bond
                            The world’s favourite number seven
