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.

Waiting for morning
Of lost hopes and regrets,—
No world can offer.
As now her heart and mind.
Below the wind,
Hearing the wind,
And yet is kind.
The hills lie curved and blent
If she waits late at night
She has drawn her hands away.
It is to gather kindnesses
The wind plays andantes
