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

Listen to poem:

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
   They laid him to rest
   Midst tribute the best
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 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....

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...

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

The blessed sacred month is here
Wake up, be enlightened, do not fear
The soul is again free from confusion

Raise your hands in prayers
Give away those boastful airs
And glimpse Almighty’s perfection

When I scream,
Do not listen.
When I judge,
Do not listen.

When I curse,
Do not listen.
When I ridicule, 
Do not listen.

When I am pitiful,
Do not listen.
When I am boastful,
Do not listen.

When I am silent,
Please listen.

oh, how the fast Fly taunts the Snail.
he flaunts his speed with 
boastful wail.

he zips and zaps now low, now high.
gets trapped in spider's 
web to die.


to each his time, to each his pace.
there really is no 
rigid race.

you sprint your way and i crawl mine.
yeah, to each his own 
finish line!...

The need to be cosseted from reality 
numbs our minds 
creating a majority 
of underdeveloped scared 
squares. 
boastful, ignorant belittlers 
blur the lines between reality 
and plastic utopia 
hiding the complexities of the world 
with coffees and cream and music and bullshit...
where did it all go wrong?...

Darkness blooming
graceful moon vine,
boastful in striking radiance
as darkness stalks
daylight reclines,

Midnight banquet
petals devour,
stars reflect
commitment, entwined
sustainable in twilight hours,

Whispers shared
lost in bleak skies ink,
lantern flowers
guide soul drifters
reserved charm ~
timid sunrise winks....
