Author K.A Bloch’s Scatter Seeds of Kindness is a book full of heartwarming and inspiring poems. The author covers various topics, including family, friendship, love, loss, societal expectations, and even bullying. Ultimately, her poems make you reflect on what’s truly important in life and how to ensure you never lose sight of it. They also help you empathize with others while still taking care of yourself.

Apart from poems, this book also contains prose explaining the stories and inspiration behind the poems. While some are rooted in the author’s personal experiences, some seem to have just come to her.

Whichever poem or story you read through, there’s clearly some intimacy there. You can see how they can apply to your own life or that of a loved one. Even when the author talks about challenging subject matter such as death and loss, you are not overwhelmed by despair. Instead, you can feel her peace and gratitude for her time with those she loved.

I really connected to one poem ‘Life Lessons outside the Classroom.’ This poem resonates with how I look back on life now. I went to college, but the things I have learned just living far outway anything I could have learned from a classroom. Especially things like dealing with other people and learning how to be a good friend and partner.

In many ways, the author reminds us to be kind to others and ourselves, even in the face of our own darkness. Her writing is light and beautiful, showing some acceptance of the passing of time and the tragedies that come with it. Ultimately, this book is charming, well-written, and extremely easy to read.

Scatter Seeds of Kindness is a beautifully written collection of poetry. Readers looking for an uplifting collection of poetry that encourages kindness to others and oneself will find this book to be a healing oasis amidst the struggles of daily life.
