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.

And not pick one.
Up from the town,
And when lights begin to show
I will mark which must be mine,
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
I will be the gladdest thing
I will look at cliffs and clouds
With quiet eyes,
And then start down.
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
And the grass rise.
