Uncanny the way your fingers fly,
Keening music fills the sky,
Underneath the staring moon,
Listen world to its croon,
Echo the songs of your native land,
Lend to the story a helping hand.
Elucidate the memories!

I can not criticise anything that I know I would do a lot worse. Acrostics fascinate me and you have done this really well. I can not write acrostics to save my life so to me this is amazing. Thank you for entering.
