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.

On the highest peak of the tired gray world,
Sometimes I am not glad to live.
To keep me from the peace of those
Who are not lonely, having died.
In spite of all I take and give—
Above me, endless space unfurled;
In spite of all your tenderness,
About me only swirling snow,
I am alone, as though I stood
I am alone, in spite of love,
And only my own spirit's pride
With earth hidden and heaven hidden,
