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. Sept. 3, 2022 for the the 'Superhero or Supervillain' Poetry Contest of Robert James Liguori

His last contest closed a day earlier than it was supposed to, so I did not get it posted in time. Luckily I could add onto it and use it for his current contest
