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.

Laugh as we always laughed
Let it be spoken without effect.
Just around the corner.
Life means all that it ever meant.
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
It is the same that it ever was.
For an interval.
I am I and you are you.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Whatever we were to each other,
I am but waiting for you.
That, we still are.
which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind
Call me by my old familiar name.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.
Let my name be ever the household word
Speak to me in the easy way
Death is nothing at all.
because I am out of sight?
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Somewhere. Very near.
Put no difference into your tone.
that it always was.
