Soft Courage

                    Broken
              fractured, hollow
      shattering, weeping, falling
     shards,  scars,  breath,   spirit
       rising, mending, enduring
               resilient, golden
                    Bravery

Dear poetess I love this but am not sure the order in which to read the words. So I read the left side top to bottom and then the right. Is this correct???

LOL! Karen you make me smile. I have been working from my computer and quickly checked if you are reading from your phone, it is sideways. I have edited it closer to the margin and it seems to be visible now. Thank you for your care in letting me know.
