Robert Frost (March 26, 1874 – January 29, 1963 / San Francisco)

From the grave, chilling words of truth in poetic form. Thanks Mr. Frost.

This poem gave me inspiration for my own writing. Without Robert Frost and his Fire and Ice I woulnd't enjoy taking a penicl and paper and creating magic. Writing is magic...

short but excellent and deep. Its amazing.

my favorite poem of his

One of my favorite poems.

shows that most men go with desire and involve themselves in hatred which only brings destruction and the end of the world(the inner conscience)

I think this poem could be applied to many situations, such as a relationship for example.

wow one of mi top ten poems btw check it out type in trying to hide my tears

He's also comparing two eschatology’s (beliefs about the end of the world) one is that the world will be Judged by God

… the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.2 Peter 3: 7

the second is the more atheistic view that the Universe is going to go on and on and eventually die what's called a heat death. Meaning that the Universe will expand to the point that all the energy is so distributed it's just a frozen wasteland.

So since he sides with those who favor fire he does think God is gonna wipe the slate clean one day, and bring justice to this world. But he's saying, even if He doesnt, and there's no God, no meaning, no life, no love no desire no Truth, no nothing, then the coldness of mans heart will just as surely bring an end to all things just like the coldness of the Universe will.
