Poplar Stand is the poetry and affirmations by Patrick Byrne. Drawing upon the emotional and spiritual connection we share with the natural world, the inspiration for the writing comes from a place of mindfulness and openness to a divine presence. The use of photography aims to capture a deeper essence behind each poem and affirmation. For a video and music interpretation of the work, please visit @poplar_stand on YouTube. Published works include Three Poem Threads, Mind, Body and Spirit Poetry, calendar and a collection of journal notebooks for those seeking forgiveness or calm, practicing mindfulness, expressing gratitude or faith, improving wellbeing and mental health, manifesting goals and desires, exploring nature or new travel destinations, and expanding curiosity for learning and creative expression.
