A little poem from what I know
Tá faitíos orm, a choinín, a choinín. [if you're addressing the rabbit directly, you need to put "coinín" into the vocative case which is preceded by the vocative particle "a", without "mo"; many learners make this mistake with phrases such as "mo chara", which should be "a chara".]
Tá faitíos orm.
Doineann, doineann.
Faoi dheireadh, bhí spéir ghorm os ár gcionn. ["spéir" is feminine, so it lenites a following adjective]
Tá faitíos orm.

Thomas, yes I did. This was the first thing I learned to write, I am learning rather unconventionally, and I decided to write a poem as I enjoy poetry in English. At the time I only knew that phrase 'Faoi dheireadh, bhí spéir gorm os ár gcionn.' and what little I learned in an hour I turned into this poem. :)

Very good. Did you intend to move from present tense to past tense for the blue sky. Doineann is a lovely word. In Irish sometimes a d word has an s equivalent. The one negative the other positive. Soineann for example.
