Why is Captain America's Shield Round?

 
              Captain America's shield,
          has been a recurring item from the beginning;
        a weapon used for defense and offence,
      there have been several shields.
  Made in different shapes and designs and of different materials,
  it began with a triangle (I think the Captain liked that shape)
    then, he was presented with a disc-shaped shield
  by President Roosevelt that he liked a lot too ! 

              Captain had a few triangles,
          that got destroyed overtime in many a battle;
        they were made in many different secret materials,
      the red circular shield is the best known.
  I like the red, white and blue design with the white star,
  and it has powers and properties helpful to the Captain;
    but, even that has been damaged, destroyed and lost,
  but the shield always comes back to fight !
