Certainly. But it depends on what you call ordinary. The French poet
Cecile Sauvage wrote a number of poems when she was pregnant, celebrating
the joy of the child growing in her and how she sensed he would become a
very musical child.
Later, when the child had grown up, he used some of the poetry in his
"Trois Melodies" to pay back a little... His name was Olivier Messiaen.
