Because the wig he wore was lime green
He sashayed about
Like a boastful peacock
He's now a high paid drag queen...

Goliath, a boastful huge giant,

And David, a shepherd and pliant,

So he took a stone,

And crushed his head bone,

Then Israel roared like a lion....

when elmer the frog hopped to town

never was history

croaked with such boastful glee

till from his pad he fell and drowned.

Boastful, self-righteous, or slightly haughty

Gold-plated, silver-edged Porta-Potty...

Chance Rooster had greatest cockscomb around.
The deepest, coppery color, shiny and sound.
He strutted his stuff.
Put on lots of guff.
Turning off most hens for miles around....

His puffed-up attitude would be hard to hide.
He had a Christmas hat, and he strutted around.
Boastful because no foxier fox could be found....

There once was a Highlander Jockey
Like his stallion, brazen and cocky
Sorry for being coarse
I am hung like my horse
So boastful, and all walkie talkie

Love is kind
                    or is blind or maybe binds
Love is patient
       where is that gift purchased
Love's not boastful
             that crosses off most of mankind....  ...

Ignoring juicy kindnesses loving marriageable newt offers possible
quick realistic solution, teaming united voices with xylophonic youthful zest....

Youth's sure, sinewed fire of limb and gait,
Reside not long not tarries late.
The unetched silk of fair Morning's face
Dons so swift a different grace,
As boastful Dawn must e'er defer
To the granite reign of Time......

I’m as good an ear as ears go
If you tell me what I don’t know,
His finger firm on chest,
Looking the least modest,  
Boastful ever, said his ego.

I see you boastful
walking with nose in the air
are you sure you’re most beloved?
are you a cake to humans?
look at your back and tell me
Is it as shiny as your face?
happiness, isn’t your pride bubbles?
bubbles in a baby’s basin?...

Pink and yellow flowers;
Distinguished
And boastful
In their exuberating 
Colours, 

Braced themselves
On tender stalks
Of watery greens,

While Butterflies
Dressed as Red Barons, 
Hovered and hummed
And flapped
Their Scarlet wings 
Feverishly....

Initiative, nor ambition upfront,
Hire him, he’ll be good as my assistant,
I just want a workhorse,
Not one for the racecourse,
A pony’s oft good if not adamant.

Fine, there’s no ‘I’ in TEAM,
There’s ‘ME’-- he talked of him.
‘ME’ is present
In management.
He said, pride spilled from brim.

The grasses massaged our feet
Till the hissers crawled beneath
Such a boastful way to greet.
The darkness reigned with silence
Till the stingers made an entrance
Such a pompous way to dance.
It's about time we re-establish our dominance...

There’s one thing of which I feel sure:
The goodness of no peer pressure.
That, year after long years,
I find for me no peers,
The boss said, peering in mirror.

How boastful the  way I rode a  sled
To flaunt my  gumboots as drag pads fled,

        I walked  through cold snow
        Fell off with pants low;

Exposing  my  hairy legs instead.



As I was Walking in the Snow  Contest

I marvel at how politicians
act like sleight-of-hand magicians;
every boastful promise they make
turns out less than true, a fake.
Sleight-of-hand is part and parcel
of magic, and will have you awed.
And in the hands of politicians
few voters ever see the fraud.
