Some say the world will end in fire
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour 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.
What do people think about the end of world? Who does poet side with and why?
Why does the poet say, I have tasted of desire I hold with those who favour fire?
What will be the cause of the end of the world if it has perish twice?
What is the message of the poem fire and Ice?
What did the metaphors of Ice and fire convey to the readers? Dont they represent the two extremely of human behaviour that can lead to the destruction and death of this world? What is the message that the past wants to give to the readers?
