His wisdom wasn't' wanted..
Brainy braggarts don't belong.
Best to you in this prompt contest.

    Thank for reading that Gert. I had fun with it but that contest is over. It only won third prize. I so glad you liked it even though it wasn't paying any more.

Hello, anonymous,

Great entry for the
Rhyming Alliteration writing prompt contest. Good rhyme and alliteration. Willie Wong reminds me of someone. Good luck in the contest.

Hello anon, this is a very well written Rhyming Alliteration poem with alliteration, well used in every line. I've not heard of a braggart. It's a new one for me. I know braggard but, checking the two words are acceptable. Good, appropriate picture. Your alliteration is excellent and the whole reads well. Good Luck - warm regards Dorothy x

Hello :)
I enjoyed your poem.
Fantastically alliterated, well rhymed and with a sound meter, it flowed really nicely. I think we all know a Willy Wong or two!
Good luck in the voting booth.
Best wishes, Debra :)

This poem, Nobody Likes a Braggart, has both the rhyme scheme and alliteration required and makes the statement that talking oneself up doesn't raise people's opinion.

Enjoyed your poem and its writing of unwanted solicitation by those who declare themselves as always right and Willie's name.
I had more than one person in mind when I read this
Good luck in the contest.

A very well-written rhyming alliteration poem about someone who are bragging too much about himself can be very annoying when they cannot end telling everyone about their accomplishments.
