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.

In the sun 'tis a woe to me!
And her ways to my ways resign;
Or steps leading into the sea.
And she never will be all mine;
But she was not made for any man,
And her mouth on a valentine.

She is neither pink nor pale,
She loves me all that she can,
And she never will be all mine.
And her voice is a string of coloured beads,
She learned her hands in a fairy-tale,
