Magic
Magic - meaning Summary
Magic Made by Imagination
This short poem contrasts other children’s reported encounters with magical creatures with the speaker’s own creative approach: rather than finding external wonder, the speaker makes magic personally. In plain, playful language it celebrates imagination and self-reliance, implying that wonder can be manufactured through play and perception. The tone is whimsical yet quietly proud, presenting creativity as an active choice rather than a passive discovery.
