Spring Morning
A. A. Milne
1882 to 1956
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.

Little ones, baby ones, over the grass.
You'd sail on water as blue as air,
And you'd see me here in the fields and say:
Where am I going? I don't quite know.
That's where I wanted to go to-day!
If you were a cloud, and sailed up there,
You'd lean on the wind when the wind came by,
What does it matter where people go?
Anywhere, anywhere. I don't know.
It's awful fun to be born at all.
Where am I going? The shadows pass,
Little ones, baby ones, over the sky.
Anywhere, anywhere. I don't know.
Down to the wood where the blue-bells grow—
Where am I going? The clouds sail by,
Where am I going? The ring-doves coo:
We do have beautiful things to do.
You'd say to the wind when it took you away:
Down to the stream where the king-cups grow—
Where am I going? The high rooks call:
Where am I going? I don't quite know.
If you were a bird, and lived on high,
Up on the hill where the pine trees blow—
Doesn't the sky look green to-day?
