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.

i'm not at the top;
It isn't in town.
It isn't really
And it isn't down.
Halfway up the stairs
I always
Run round my head.
Anywhere!
Instead!
It's somewhere else
Isn't up
quite like
is a stair
i'm not at the bottom,
so this is the stair
And all sorts of funny thoughts
it.
Halfway down the stairs
other stair
stop.
there isn't any
It isn't in the nursery,
where
where i sit.
