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 hope one day, they’ll hear the call,
We’re on the edge, a precipice,
The truth so clear, yet they’re so annoyed.
While the forests burn, day by day.
I’ll keep on fighting, I won’t stand down,
They talk of cycles, of nature’s way,
I’ve seen the reefs turn white, the wildlife flee,
I’ve shown the facts, I’ve drawn the charts,
We hold the key to change, it’s in our hands,
Ignoring all the signs before it’s too late.
When will they see the future we share?
For every tree, for every town.
Yet they deny, they dismiss.
They say it’s just a phase, a twist of fate,
The consequence of our own folly.
But they turn away, it’s all the same.
I’m tired of shouting into the void,
Why won't they listen? Why can’t they see?
The planet’s crying out, it’s clear to me.
And join the fight, before we fall.
But denial stands like shifting sands.
I speak of rising seas, of scorching flames,
The ice is breaking up, the Earth’s losing heart.
What will it take for them to care?
