A Selection of Haiku

A collection of various haiku I've written over the years. No connection between them - just wanted to have them all in one spot!

Meánoíche chiúin fhliuch.

Suaimhneas grámhar cneasta,

Dá mbeifeá liom anocht. 

A cold, wet midnight; 

A kind, loving peace, should you 

Lay with me tonight. 

-----

Tús an Gheimhridh; 

Gaoth fhionnuar láidir

Ag dúisiú na tíre. 

The start of Winter; 

A strong, cool wind awakens 

All within the land. 

-----

Peace / Síocháin

November morning;

Both my soul and the weather

Calm, after the storm

Maidin na Samhna;

Tá m'anam 's an aimsir

Suan, th'réis na stoirme.

-----

Christmas Haiku

Christmastime awakens;

Moonlight on a garden path

Keeps me safe tonight. 

----- 

Haiciú Grá / A Love Haiku 

Tús mhí na Samhna;

An grá faoi bhláth arís, le

Póigín ar mo bhéal. 

November's Start;

Love blossoms anew, with a

Kiss upon my lips.

-----

I lár na hoíche,

Titim i mo chodladh;

Táim slán, faoi dheireadh.

Middle of the night -

I fall into a slumber;

I am safe, at last.

Author's Note

"Christmas Haiku" was written in English only, the lack of an Irish translation is arbitary.
