Matariki- Acrostic poem

Matariki is the Maori name for the cluster of stars.    

All round the north of nz people are celebrating matariki.

Traditionally Matariki was a time to remember those who had died in the last year.

At Waitangi there planting native trees.

Ranginui was the sky father and papatuanuku was the earth mother.

I know that Matariki only rises at the early of June once a year.

Kites were in the air and people are playing accordions were playing celebrating Matariki

I also know that Matariki was also a HAPPY time it was a time for singing and dancing.
