Treasures hidden in the night

She came into the night when I happened to be following shadows. At first I didn't believe it. I didn't believe my eyes was seeing this beauty under the street light let alone out after dark. I slowly approached her asking if she was alright and if I could help. She said she was waiting on a girlfriend and I said what kind of friend let's you alone waiting on her after dark. We looked into each other's eyes and a smile came across my face and hers as well although she tried to hide it. We walked off together and that was the night I was visited by a living Angle. Thankyou God for saving me through my now wife.
