Body And Soul Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HICEJKL MNOPQAM

The edge of the sari is burnedA
The searing body is aflameB
Yet no fire consumes the soulC
The soul drenches in the Ashar rainD
Ashar s rain thunders fiercelyE
Lightning leaps in ecstatic chaosF
And in the mind kadamba blossoms bloomG
-
In the wind countless ashes whirlH
The wildfire spreads its fiery sparksI
A sculpted figure burns to coalC
Scarred grotesque and wounded deeplyE
Yet the purified soul claims its triumphJ
A holy dip in the Ganga washes all sinsK
Thus the mind showers with cascading watersL
-
In an abandoned desolate homeM
Can there ever be celebrationN
Ghosts and spirits hold their councilO
Weaving tales of eerie mysteriesP
Like a wandering displaced manQ
The careless soul roams unmooredA
This body an empty human homeM
