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.

Not a bitter note in their song.
Play ball and play at chess;
Each wear a long white gown,
But they shall know keener pleasure,

And they shall know joy more rare—
Each wear a long white dress,
