This is an experimental haiku in Swedish, with the translation provided, set in my hometown Uppsala. St Lucia is the saint of light, celebrated on 13 December
The meter worked in both languages, too.
lucia eve haiku
en drunknad cykel
stilla flyter Fyrisån
ljus återvänder
a drowned bicycle
still flows the river Fyris
light returns again
