Body is a Temple

by WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
(COCHIN, KERALA, INDIA)

The body is a temple

of temptations,

Built – in with sinful

Deeds and ventures;

The aftermath is for purity

This comes only

On your accomplishment of life.

The soul is a shrine

Of affections,

Made of powerful

Pillars and frames;

The ceremony is for purity

This comes only

On your entertainment of love.
