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.

The herds were decimated, the people suffered too
May the Great Spirit's blessings forever be entwined.
She came in a time of great need, with gifts all around
The land, the culture, the bond that was broke
Oh Great Spirit, hear our song
For centuries the tribes have passed down
Guide us to restore what was lost for so long
To show the people how to live, how to pray, how to grow
But now a new chapter, a chance to renew
As the white calf stands tall, a powerful provoke
The buffalo roam, the people rejoice
The herd in Yellowstone, the last of its kind
The white calf returns, we raise up our voice
A sacred omen, a sign from above
Brings hope for the future, a blessing of love
For the Yellowstone herd, the last of its kind
The white buffalo calf, a sacred sight
The story of the White Buffalo Woman
A beacon of hope, a future so bright
The white buffalo calf has arrived
