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.

밤새도록 노닐다가
노여움이 없어라.
원래 내 것인데
다리가 넷이로다.
서울 밝은 달밤에
둘은 내 것인데
들어가 잠을 보니
빼앗아 가신다면
둘은 뉘 것인가?
