What Irish poem is this?

    My wife did a poem for her leaving cert (1996ish), and she's trying to find the poem again. It was for honours Irish, and the poem was about the poet's garden that was overgrown and run wild, and the neighbour's garden that was very neat and well kept.

    It may have been by Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, but we can't find any reference either way on the net.

    Does this ring a bell for anyone?

    The poem is called Eiceolaí, and it's written by Biddy Jenkison. It was on the honours Irish Leaving Cert syllabus this year.
