Archery

Two friends go camping In the wilderness They bring a target board With bows and arrows The target is up They all get ready One at a time wait For each of their turns For a perfect aim One friend aimed- then let go The arrow did not go far Only a short distence The other friend tried The best he could Only he got bruised When the arrow flew He ended up with a bruse That took awhile to heal It did not matter to him He enjoyed the sport

Hello Pandita my friend. When i was a little girl I did archery. I never hit the target,but I was close to the target. It was a lot of fun. Thank you. I enjoyed to write this poem. have a nice day my friend.

Gotta be careful of that bow string. It'll get you every time.

I think the bow string is very strong. It can give a person a bruise. have a nice evening my friend.

I am not very poetic but when I read this it has such a deeper meaning to me that I can read my life tale in this poem.
