Captain America and His Mighty Shield
Oh, mighty is the shield used by the man
Captain America. This great shield can
slice even through resistance of hard wind
and loss of it momentum can rescind
because of its concentric shape, and so
it is a weapon that the Cap can throw!
By accident this starred shield came to be
when its creator slept and did not see
the binding catalyst that made it great.
It was a substance none could duplicate!
Absorbing energy, it just makes more
and Cap can take a beating then from Thor!
The Captain merely stands on it, and he
is well protected by its energy.
Kinetic is this energy, and Cap
just stands on it, absorbing new impact!
It flaunts a star and stripes red, white and blue.
Not just a shield, it is a weapon too!
So many other spells does Captain use.
A legend of America is he whose
other hero friends are “Marvel”ous.
They battle villains with such fearlessness!
How frail did Steven Rogers use to be.
But now a warrior most brave is he.
