Trina Graves  1961
Spiritual poet & quote anthologist

All of these Spiritual Modern Nursery Rhymes were written by me.

In May 2000 I lived in the North Oxfordshire countryside and one day was travelling by bus to work in Oxford. As the bus wove around the villages on route, I was gazing out of the window enjoying the signs of Spring in the countryside, but with no other thoughts.

Then, into my mind came the simple words of a children's rhyme. I was amused and instinctively knew the words should be remembered as they would be shared one day. When I got to work (in a shop) one of the first customers was a vicar with a huge cross around his neck, I knew this was a sign for me not to forget the rhyme: Where Is God? So I went over the words several times during the day and wrote it out as soon as I got home.

This was one of my earliest poems (the first rhyming one), although I knew it was to be shared, the way was not known to me until I started my original Spiritual Quotes To Live By site over ten years later. And now, twenty-five years later I am delighted to find it being shared on You-Tube read by a young girl in the Phillipines and also used as a teaching English video. 

I also have a page of Spiritual Poems For Children.

Spiritual Modern Nursery Rhymes:
I Love Nature 

I Love nature
I love trees
I love the little birds
And the tiny bees

I love the moon
I love the sun
I love every morning
When the day has begun

I love cats
I love dogs
I love going for walks
Climbing on fallen logs

I love clouds
I love sky
I love the glistening stars
Shining from so very high

I love mountains
I love seas
I love standing still
And feeling the breeze

I love nature
I love it all
I love seeing
And hearing nature’s call

Spiritual Modern Nursery Rhymes:
My Hands, Your Hands, God's Hands

My hands touch you with Love
Your hands do this too
God’s Hands always Love you

My hands feed you food
Your hands try this too
God’s Hands always feed you

My hands take care of you
Your hands are learning this too
God’s Hands always care for you

My hands keep you safe
Your hands will learn this too
God’s Hands are always safe for you

My hands hold yours to guide
Your hands will not always need me
But in God’s Hands we will always be

Spiritual Modern Nursery Rhymes:
Where Is God?

God is in the flowers
God is in the trees
God is in the butterflies
And the birds and bees

God is in the sunshine
God is in the storm
God is in the snow and frost
That makes you wrap up warm

God is in the good
God is in the bad
God is in what makes you happy
And what makes you sad

God is everywhere you look
And everywhere you go
God is your best friend always
Because God Loves you so

Spiritual Modern Nursery Rhymes:
1, 2...  Learn Something New

1, 2... Learn something new,
3, 4... Ideas grow more.
5, 6... The clock always ticks,
7, 8... Change is a date.
9, 10... Enjoy it when,
11, 12... Inspired to delve.
13, 14... Then you glean,
15, 16... From the unseen.
17, 18... What does life mean?..
19, 20... Joys are plenty.
