Dancing on a razor blade
Skating on thin ice
Wishing that you had it made
Another look, makes twice
A second chance at romance
The first to fall in love
Trying, when all seems hopeless
Pushing a pull, instead of shove
Number one with a bullet
Wearing a safety vest
Forgetting to wear a helmet
Riding that hog out west
No needle and a voodoo doll
Always a dollar short
Finding the thing to risk it all
A blanket for a fort
An armor not so shiny
A hero lost at sea
Under the moon, knight pining
For someone else, but me
A play on words, just business
Working to make some fun
Wishing a merry Christmas
To each and everyone

This quite the collection of idioms in a way or some would maybe think Jabberwocky. Good work.
Well-wrought! Exceedingly clever and a fun read!
A lovely collection of loose thoughts rolled into a poem. Nice job, Kelli.
