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.

Thou wouldst still be adored, as this moment thou art,
The same look which she turned when he rose!
Would entwine itself verdantly still.
And thy cheeks unprofaned by a tear,
As the sunflower turns on her god when he sets
No, the heart that has truly loved never forgets,
That the fervor and faith of a soul may be known,
Let thy loveliness fade as it will,
Which I gaze on so fondly to-day,
It is not while beauty and youth are thine own,
Live fairy-gifts fading away,
Were to change by to-morrow, and fleet in my arms,
Believe me, if all those endearing young charms,
To which time will but make thee more dear!
And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart
But as truly loves on to the close,
