Moonlight on a Pool of Darkness

Moonlight on a still pool of darkness,
deep with joy.
Nights of solemn swims steeped  in 
Gratefulness .
You rippled in waves like the Pool of Bethesda 
Obeying the breath of the Holy Spirit 
You are clueless to your beauty then. 
Dank, covered., unused, murky pond.
Your present state.
I sleep this time within a  mile of your being.
Oh, to rush down the street and save you, my pool.
Dreaming, remembering ?
Your old owner?
Our smoldering nights of splendor.
