You have it right. You may just need to close out your <body> tag.

in HTML code, you ALMOST always need a closing tag ( </something> . That is <foo> should always be closed with </foo>. So you have an opening <body> but are missing the closing tag </body>. But note how you already have <html> and </html>. The <body> is IN BETWEEN (we say it is nested inside) the <html> and </html> tags. This means your closing </body> tag needs to go in between the <html> </html> too.

NOte: there are a few tags that don't have a </> closing tag. For example: link and image tags. But when in doubt, add a closing </> tag!
