Summary of poem

Fire and ice

Fire and Ice’ is a short poem by Robert Frost. In this poem, the poet refers to two predictions of how the world will end. Some say it will end in fire whereas others say it will end in ice. According to the poet ‘fire’ stands for desire, greed, avarice or lust. The more you try to satisfy them, the more they grow. There is no end to it.

They spread rapidly like fire and engulf your whole life. One becomes selfish and sometimes cruel also. On the other hand, ‘ice’ according to the poet, stands for hatred, coldness and rigidity. One becomes insensitive and indifferent towards the feelings of others. The poet says that both fire and ice are growing with such a rapid speed that the world would soon perish either way, in fire or in ice.

Answer 2

Fire and Ice is a short poem written by Robert Frost. The poem expresses the idea that the world will end someday, either by Fire or by Ice. Here, the poet has compared Fire and Ice with the self-destructing emotions of human beings. The fire and ice poem beautifully describes how humans let their emotions rule over them. They have no control over their desires. They work towards achieving their desires, but the more they work, the more they get trapped in them. Thus, they never feel satisfied and destroy their life. In a similar way, the poet thinks that fire and ice will lead to the destruction of the world.
