Fire and Ice

Fire and Ice

Robert Frost

 Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice

Is also great

And would suffice.

    People argue whether earth is going to be distroyed by fire or by ice, I think according to the scriptures. In the poem he is saying that he has felt the passion and heat of desire, and is compairing that to the symbolized fire, and he can truley see how that would be able to compleatly consume the world, but then he has also felt the freezing cold sting of someone\’s hate, and he could see how that could also be just as consumeing as desire.

    he wrote this during the time of the war so i beileve that he thinks that the war will either end with everyone getting along(fire/compermization) or end in tragety with everyone dieing(ice/crulety).

    how is this even remotely considered a love poem? Frost is a wonderful poet, but this has been clearly misunderstood.

  20. # aneisis mejiaon 04 Feb 2009 at 7:45 pm

    the reason it is a love poem is because he is comparing love and passion and desire to the fire. and he believes the world would end happily in a sense. if u still dont understand email me at aneisis.mejia@yahoo.com

    This is clearly about love…..love is so passionate, but it is also so consuming….can you ever really love someone you haven\’t hated?????

    ok there have been some accurate while others, how dgdfgd exclusivly lack depth this is one of he deepest poem i know how does it lack depth the fire is a burning it represents desire or passion so naturally ice being the opposite representsno desire or passion it is cold and sharp now how is this a love poem ever hear the phrase opposites attract while fire burn brightly ice cools swiftly they can coinside as one they are two side to a coin yin and yang, passion and indifference but they are always together any othe questions my e-mail is lance-m-2010@ hotmail.com
