The First Avenger

He was a commoner desiring to be a soldier After disappointing initial failure Steve Rogers Got selected for super soldier experiment in US military Serum injection and Vita-ray dosing made him muscular. He toured the country in colorful costumes During WW II time in fund raising campaign For his patriotic endeavor during the national exigency He was very proud to be designated as Captain America. He proved his worth with fabulous bravery When he could free all the war prisoners Infiltrating alone the fortified fortress of the Hydra base Of the Nazi General Schmidt, named as crafty Red Skull. To stop him using weapons of mass destruction Rogers confronted Schmidt inside his aircraft That finally crashed in the icy waters of the Arctic sea Schmidt vanished in space, Rogers remained untraced. The Captain woke up in an old style hospital bed After seventy years from suspended animation A feat that befitted the extraordinary role of a superhero Who assimilated the singular elements of the first avenger. ___________________ May 27, 2022 Contest : Captain America Sponsored by : Robert James Liguori
