Celebrated lyric poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow found inspiration in daily life, connecting functional tasks to higher purpose and aesthetic value. The objects that surround us serve a functional purpose, certainly. But, they can also serve to add joy and inspiration every day.
Turn, turn, my wheel! Turn round and
round
Without a pause, without a
sound:
So spins the
flying world away!
This
clay, well mixed with marl and sand,
Follows
the motion of my hand;
For
some must follow, and some command,
Though
all are made of clay!
