spinning a tale

I spun a tale today. I spun it fine and tight. When I finished, I wound it into a loose hank and dyed it. It came out all pinks and blues and purples (it was a bitter-sweet story, you see). I wove some cloth from it, and made from that a cloak so fine it will keep me warm on lonely nights for many years to come.
Some day I'll spin a tale for you, too.
