530 <br /> <br />You cannot put a Fire out— <br />A Thing that can ignite <br />Can go, itself, without a Fan— <br />Upon the slowest Night— <br /> <br />You cannot fold a Flood— <br />And put it in a Drawer— <br />Because the Winds would find it out— <br />And tell your Cedar Floor—<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-cannot-put-a-fire-out/
