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.

So sure I'd come — so sure I'd come,
That hunted, hunted so, to see,
It listening, listening, went to sleep
Should reach the heart that wanted me;
Since breaking then, since breaking then,
Were useless as next morning's sun,
My heart would wish it broke before,
If I should disappoint the eyes
And could not bear to shut until
I should not dare to leave my friend,
Telling my tardy name, —
While I was gone, and I — too late —
Because — because if he should die
Where midnight frosts had lain!
If I should stab the patient faith
They "noticed" me — they noticed me;
