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.

But whom have we fed to-day?
But what have we done to-day?
We shall speak with words of love and cheer,
We shall give out gold in princely sum,
We shall bring to each lonely life a smile,
We shall lift the heart and dry the tear,
But what have we done to-day?
We shall be so kind in the after while,
But what have we been to-day?
But what have we brought to-day?
We shall give to truth a grander birth,
We shall plant a hope in the place of fear,
But what did we give to-day?
And to steadfast faith a deeper worth,
We shall feed the hungering souls of earth,
We shall do so much in the years to come,
