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.
- Robert Frost
About the Author:
Robert Frost (1874-1963) was born in San Francisco, California. His father William Frost, a journalist and an ardent Democrat, died when Frost was about eleven years old. His Scottish mother, the former Isabelle Moody, resumed her career as a schoolteacher to support her family.
Reflection:
i can make a text to self connections, because i would also prefer that the world ends in fire rather than ice. I can make text to text connections because in Ms.Babauta's class, we read a poem written by Robert Frost. I can also make text to world because, hell is just made out of fire.
TPCASTT:
