I loved this poem the moment I first read it, imagining a God who dwelt in music, creating the world and us in a universe of swirling sound. Gracia Grindal was referring to Norwegian composer and personal friend Nils Henrik Asheim as she wrote, but the larger view is easily drawn. The whole work is a meditation on creative power, the wonders inside everything 'ordinary.' Our 'stone deaf ears' should be awakened as we sing and listen. -Alice Parker.
