My Purpose

"My purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset ... to strive, to seek, to find..."

These words are inscribed on the piece with free-motion calligraphy.  The quotation is from one of my most favorite poems, Ulysses by Alfred Lord Tennyson.  It ends with the words, "and not to yield."

I've put a link to the whole poem below for anyone interested:
