“Wash it all away” by Lee-Anne Lenore Archibald

The hum of the coin laundry, was soothing. I was soothed by the hum of the whole place. It smelled like fresh washing and was clean. It had plants that needed watering, ( I checked the dirt). It was a newer laundry place, with state of the art washers, they talked to you and everything. They said your load is locked in and your now finished and stuff like that. I looked around at the black man with his little girl. They both looked calm and serene, her sipping on a Coca-Cola, like it was a real treasure,treat. Later she helped her dad fo...

“ A Man or god” by Lee-Anne Lenore Archibald

I walked on a path of light and darkness. In front of me was a learning place. It told of all these different kinds of God's. Which one was right? Was I a God? Was God, God? Was a better man, than me, a God? Were there many God's, before? Was all of man his self, a God? Would this life time, be enough time, to learn all of these things? If God exists, surely he would make sure we knew of Him, before we left this place. Would He send us, to the next place, and let us know after, this life? Maybe, there would be many, many, places that we w...

“How romantic” by Lee-Anne Lenore Archibald

She crossed her legs, she uncrossed her legs. In her mind she was crossing her fingers. She had just filled out the ornate valentines card for Gary, saying how much she loved him and how happy she was to be part of his world. She really wanted a valentines gift this year. It wasn't the gift she wanted, as much as the acknowledgment, that they were a couple. A real couple, a couple that remembered each other on Valentines...

“She's the one.” by Lee-Anne Lenore Archibald

" HI" I said, to the opalescent nails, the black high stiletto boots, the auburn cascading hair, and most of all the gorgeous blue eyes. "Do you come here often?" I tried to say casually. She looked at me sideways then did a double take. I was flattered by the double take. Maybe it meant this perfect manicured, high-heeled, goddess, would let me buy her coffee. She agreed to let me purchase her a double double, carefully stirring and wiping around the cup with a napkin.I was a okay looking guy, with the kind of man las...

My favorite black sweater, was in my roommates room. It was cold enough out, outside, that I needed my black sweater. She had half of my wardrobe already, darn it all anyways. Living with a crackhead a...

“My cup of tea?” by Lee-Anne Lenore Archibald

I always have my tea at two.At two I have my tea. I reminded myself of this for eighty years. Then Edwin died, and I had to have tea by myself. I was tired of having my tea at two, by myself.I walked out the door of my home, for the seventh time this week, to " Sweet Tea" about five short blocks away. It was Saturday today. I liked it there, because there was nowhere to sit, for tea. I always seemed, to have such lovely conversations there. Once this week, a conversation with a mother of six. Goodness six children. I had none. Bu...
