Acrostic

I came across this the other day:
Acrostic: A poem in which the first letter of each line spells out a word, name, or phrase when read vertically. See Lewis Carroll’s “A Boat beneath a Sunny Sky.”
And so, I thought I might try my hand:
Here by Tygers  
by Shaun Leslie Turriff
These rare strange beasts.
In these beasts we find some
Good left in the broken, creased
Everyday. These beasts become
Rare, but here be tigers, at least.
I trust you'll enjoy, gentle reader.
