Tagged 7-7-7

I haven't had this tag, have you?
Go to your WIP, flip to page 7 or 77, find line 7, post the next 7 sentences. Tag 7 writers.

Instead of tagging writers, I'm going to put up Mr. Linky then you can link us to your 7-7-7. If you don't want to link here, let us know in the comments.

I picked page 7 of my WIP:

I study my dirty, red flip-flops as I go. Something shiny catches my eye. A penny.

See a penny,

Pick it up,

All daylong

You’ll have good luck.

When I was younger I wanted to believe that lie so badly. If anyone needed luck it was me. But no matter how many coins I picked up or threw in the wishing ponds, my luck was limited to finding the stupid penny. Even birthday wishes didn’t come true.
