This week’s haiku

Birdsong these mornings again…

As dawn infiltrates,                             
songbirds perfect their chorus               
– for St. Brigid’s Day.

Draoícht…

Ceo suaithinseach,                             
‘g éirigh óna claíocha.                  
Tá na Sídhe amuigh.

Béara…

Distant and purple,                             
Béara basks in Winter sun.                  
Like a stained glass cat.

Walking in the woods…

Beech leaves gleam in gloom:                              
pale copper on black branches.                   
Colours of Winter.

*********************************

Ah, the first moon of the year…

Golden moon appears.                               
Full, round over the hilltops.                     
Throws mauve shadows.
