Met de compositie op het gedicht ‘A child said, what is the grass?’ heeft Rob Goorhuis een lang gekoesterde wens in vervulling doen gaan om dit magistrale gedicht met een muzikale achtergrond extra reliëf te geven.
De tekst gaat over de oneindigheid van het leven. Whitman draagt zijn boodschap op volstrekt oorspronkelijke en onnavolgbare wijze uit.
