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 I sunned it with smiles,
In the morning glad I see;
And he knew that it was mine.
Night & morning with my tears:
I was angry with my foe:
And it grew both day and night.
Till it bore an apple bright.
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.
And I waterd it in fears,
And my foe beheld it shine,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And into my garden stole,
When the night had veild the pole;
I was angry with my friend;
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
