Fire
Emily Dickinson
1830 to 1886
Ashes denote that fire was;
Respect the grayest pile
For the departed creature's sake
That hovered there awhile.
Fire exists the first in light,
And then consolidates, —
Only the chemist can disclose
Into what carbonates.
Emily Dickinson's Fire
I am busy working to bring Emily Dickinson's "Fire" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Emily Dickinson's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Fire" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
