Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. Your goal is to reassemble the original poem as accurately as possible. As you move the lines, you'll see whether your arrangement is correct, helping you explore the poem's flow and meaning. You can also print out the jumbled poem to cut up and reassemble in the classroom. Either way, take your time, enjoy the process, and discover how the poet's words come together to create something truly beautiful.

Coral, anemone,
Visions that witches brew,
Spoken with images,
Opened the gates of Dawn—
I have seen the proudest stars
Even the sun and moon,
Yet not your voice.
I have touched the trillium,
The winds and waves rejoice
I have heard the violin,
I have kissed the shining feet
I have dreamed unwonted things,
In endless minstrelsy;
But not your face.
Of Twilight lover-wise,
Pale flower of the land,
And not your hand.
Oh, not your eyes!
That wander on through space,
Never with you.
