Enough
Emily Dickinson
1830 to 1886
Track 1
Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. You can also use the up (↑) and down (↓) arrows to move a line one place at a time, or the top (⇑) and bottom (⇓) arrows to move a line directly to the top or bottom. 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.

I deem that I with but a crumb
Such plenty smiles upon my board,
To own it, touch it, prove the feat
God gave a loaf to every bird,
I could not miss an ear,
For ampler coveting.
Am sovereign of them all.
That made the pellet mine, —
I dare not eat it, though I starve, —
My poignant luxury
An Indiaman — an Earl?
My garner shows so fair.
But just a crumb to me;
Too happy in my sparrow chance
I wonder how the rich may feel, —
It might be famine all around,
