The Joy of Captain America

Reading Captain America brings me great joy He's more than a comic book, not a mere toy I enjoy his fights for freedom every day and how he defeats the bad guys in every single way He dresses up in a costume which seems like a lot of fun but he only fights with his shield, never with a gun Going at it for way over eighty years he's captured our attention and all of our ears Writing this poem is taking a break from reading another issue but when I'm back it will be hip-hip-hooray and never any tissues I'd like to say the joy Captain America brings me is ever so grand I encourage you to read his comic books too, again and again Thursday, July 21, 2022 JOY Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Regina McIntosh
