Today, I learned the colorful expression "marrying the ropemaker's daughter", thankfully not based on firsthand experience.
For years, without caution, I sought her, and at last, it looks like I caught her. I'd like to wear my tie loose ('specially as it's a noose) when I wed the ropemaker's daughter. In an hour, a raven passed me by, and said, "how I admire your new tie", and "in hard times like these, don't think 'twist in the breeze', rather, 'Today, I learn how to fly'".
