” A Bed of Roses “

by Suzán Jiván

A bed of roses
blow hot and cold
rock the boat
take a bow
well out of bounds
knit one’s brows
down in the mouth
cat and mouse
cheek by jowl
told to take a powder
for crying out loud
down-and-out
long and drawn out
down to the ground
at face value
falling into place
far and away
currying favor
having a field day
fresh as a daisy ...
