Question:

Poem annotation?

http://www.poems.com/fireibre.htm...

here is the poem. What is this poem about? It was assigned to me by my poetry teacher. I can't think of anything besides a doll house. Help me please! give me a website or help yourself to annotate this poem. Thanks!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

I,m not sure but I get the feeling that it is about heaven or something to the equivalent.
I'm pretty sure it is talking about death in a bitter sweet way.
the clue I found to be revealing was at the end of the poem when the dolls under their tents were taken by the fire.
Read it again and see what you think.
see if you can see what I've seen.
Hope this helps.
