Dodge City, Kansas
Circa 1876
PART ONE:
"Colter"
U.S.Marshal Matt Dillon had been on the trail of Jess Colter for 2 weeks. Colter and his two partners had robbed the freight office. Matt was only able to get one of Colter's men
whom he had drapped over his horse.
After taking him to the undertaker, Matt headed out to Sunshine's place. He had been away from his lady love for so long, he thought he may go crazy.
When he reached her farm, Sunshine saw him from her kitchen window. As she came flying out the front door of the house, he sped to her side and jumped off his horse.....She ran into his arms!! It's been often stated that (2) Love is a temporary madness. At this moment in time, Matt and Sunshine were totally insane. They fell to the ground, clinging to each other.
Matt finally gathered his wits, AND his Sunny, and carried her indoors....."Little lady?" He kissed her...."(1) When Love Beckon's To You, Follow Him."
Sunshine:"Matt.....I would follow you ANYWHERE."
They spent the rest of the day and night in each other's arms.
Matt looked deep into her eyes and whispered......... "Oh, baby..... (4) My night has become a sunny dawn because of you."
They kissed over and over again.
Sunshine could never get enough of Matt. She loved him ...... Oh, my, how she loved him. Sex was an important part of their relationship, to be sure.....But her feelings for him extended to his soul.......to his very essence...."Matt, (5) "You're nothing short of my everything."
When he left for town the next morning, he left a very satisfied man. He knew he had the love and respect of the woman HE loved and respected.
When he reached Dodge, he went to his office and began the neccesary paperwork in regard to yesterday's apprehension and killing of the robber. He hadn't been there for more than an hour or two, when Doc and Festus came into his office...."Well, what's this? It's too early for lunch."
Doc:"Matt....now I'm going to tell you something and I ....Well I just want you to stay put until we can organize a posse."
Matt:"What're you talking about, Doc?" He stood up.
Doc:"Now you....Now just sit down..."
Matt:"I'm standing. What is it!"
They told Matt that a message had been delivered to his office. Sunshine had been abducted by Colter and his partner.
Doc:"Now Matt.....Now just sit down until we can figure out what to do."
Matt went over to the rifle rack,grabbed a box of ammo,his saddlebags and started for the door.
Festus:"Matthew. I'm comin' too. "
Matt:"No you're not. You stay here and take care of things.
This is personal."
Doc:"MATT! Sit DOWN and think this thing out rationally!!"
Matt went outside, got on his horse, and was gone in a flash.
Festus:"Mmmm....Matthew must really love Miss Sunshine."
Doc:" Festus.....(3) Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away. Yes.....I would say that Matt loves Sunshine."

The southern breeze shuffled the cypress leaves, swirled around the crowd, and rippled Irris' black scarf. Her green eyes closed in a moment of peace as she allowed her thoughts to travel on the wind's tail. The sands of time shifted, Irris felt herself transform.
She saw from her new perspective a memory from her past, her mother sat across from her in the sewing room repairing a torn shirt. Irris heard the words come from her mouth discribing the confusion of a late leen in a fresh love affair. her mother listened patiently, moving on to a pair of socks, with a saddly sweet smile; finaly she chimed, "Love is a temporary madness, dear." The wind gusted, morphing the surroundings.
Beneath the star lit sky, Irris and her betroathed lay together wrapped only in a moon beam as they physicaly connected their spiritual bond . . . Will's soft caress across her face awoke her to the morning dove calls. His young, earth-brown eyes radiated love as he confessed "My night has become a sunny dawn because of you." Irris had no hesitation in embracing him with her entire soul, this time in the warmth of the sun and accompanied by a symphony of birds. The wind blew, shifting the sand of time again.
Now standing before the village priest, Will and Irris sealed their vowes with a kiss. As the families applauded, Will professed in her ear "You're nothing short of my everything." As the couple walked up the aisle, the wind of change worked its magic again.
Irris sat across from her mother again, both of them older as Irris discribed the heart breaking arrguments she and Will have been struggling through. Once again re-sewing a button, her mother gave simple yet worthy advise, "Do you still love him?"
"Of course, I still love him. But its different than it was before."
"Child, Love itself is what is left over when being IN love has burned away."
The sands shifted, showing Irris different scenes from her life with Will. Their first house, their children being born, the romantic dinners, their children getting married. A lifetime sprinkled with the salty tears of sorrow which make the happy tears that much sweeter.
Irris felt the scarf fall back upon her chest. The crowd was walking away in silence, a friendly hand rested on her shoulder as a mournful voice whispered "I'm so sorry for your loss. Will shall always be remembered as a great man."
The wind tugged on her scarf again, this time pointing toward the gleaming casket. Irris rose to her feet as a tear rolled down her cheek, "When Love beacons to you, follow him."

Belinda and Luna were in a heated discussion about their respective boyfriends, as they laid on reclining chairs on the backyard of Belinda's house, under a star-filled sky on a Friday evening.
Belinda was the ultimate romantic, living for passion, roses and candlelit dinners.
Luna prided herself on her logical outlook on life and cherished the idea of love for the long lasting companionship it would bring her,aswellas the emotional satisfaction, the security of it, having a best friend, a buddy for the rest of her life whom she adored.
So, when Luna's boyfriend had to go on a company training for three weeks in Philadelphia, she was perfectly content staying here in Pittsburgh, and talking to him on the phone each night, rather than taking him up on his invitation and staying with him in Philly during the course of the training.
He did have a nice suite all to himself, and the hotel he stayed in had a fancy jakuzzi, not to mention a huge pool, but still... She had her responsibilities here and she wasn't the kind of gal to chase a guy around like a love sick puppy.
"He'll be back in Pittsburgh soon enough". Declared Luna as she reached over the the table between them to grab a tortilla chip and dip it into a bowl of guacamole.
Belinda looked at her friend with affection and responded, "Yet you won't have the memories you could have if you were in Philly with him. (1)When love beacons to you, follow him. You would get to dine at different restaurants, you would get to shop at those cute stores on South Street. Then during the day while he is in training, you could check out the museums and stuff your face with heavenly Philly cheese steak sandwiches. You can take your laptop and continue writing while you are there. All you really need is love, you know. As the song goes, 'love will lift us up where we belong; where the eagles fly, on the mountain high'.
Luna couldn't help but chuckle; Belinda's unabashed romanticism never seized to amaze her. After washing down the chips she had been shoveling down her throat with a couple of sips from her glass of frozen margarita, she retorted, "Being in (2)love is a temporary madness. It takes all rhyme and reason away. However, I am all for the kindness and affection that comes with loving somebody, because (3)love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away. That is real. That, you can depend on".
Belinda groaned, "But you are missing the whole magic of being in love, then. When my beloved Phillip surprised me with having our bedroom jam packed with roses- and I mean there were roses EVERYWHERE-, and what little space left was occupied with dozens of vanilla scented candles, I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Then, to my even further delight, he presented me with a purple velvet box in which I found a necklace with a pendant in the shape of a pixie! You know howmuch I love pixies. Adding to it, with a flourish he stated, '(4)My night has become a sunny dawn because of you'."
Luna let her head drop back and responded, "Yeah, no offense, but the kind of passionate, guey romance you and Phillip have, makes the normal people feel nauseous. He is a great guy, and I respect your boyfriend, however this is a guy who has said to you, '(5)You're nothing short of my everything', after dating with you for only four weeks! I know I'm a bit cynical but I just can't relate to that kind of mooshy, stars-in-the-eyes, yay,- we're-in-heaven, kind of being in love. I like to be able to keep my wits about me. That's all I'm saying".
Belinda, reaching over for some chips to dip in guacamole, herself, announced in a matter-of-fact tone of voice, "Life is way too short to let the potential magical moments pass by, unlived. The moments that take your breath away are the ones you will look back and remember fondly, years later, when you recall the cherished memories of your life". She went quiet for about a minute and a half, as she chowed down the chips drenched in guacamole sauce, and after taking a thirst satisfying gulp from her glass of margarita, she raised it and called for a toast.
Casting her friend, who was getting a clear buzz by now, a somewhat suspicious glance, Luna raised her own glass and patiently waited as Belinda went on and on about how great friendships are and how magical being in love is. She finally heard Belinda say, "On this subject, dear friend, we agree to disagree."
Luna cheered, "Hear, hear..." and the two friends clinked their glasses to friendship, love and all different versions of that phenomena.
