The Waking Year
Emily Dickinson
1830 to 1886
Track 1
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.

Her annual secret keeps;
In such a little while!
A lady white within the field
Were nothing very odd!
The woods exchange a smile —
Orchard, and buttercup, and bird —
The tidy breezes with their brooms
The neighbors do not yet suspect!
As if the resurrection
Prithee, my pretty housewives!
In placid lily sleeps!
And yet how still the landscape stands,
Who may expected be?
How nonchalant the wood,
A lady red upon the hill
Sweep vale, and hill, and tree!
