Magic

Magic isn’t always loud.

It doesn’t need thunder
or sparks
or hands raised to the sky.

Sometimes
it is a quiet knowing —
a feeling that settles
before the mind understands.

It lives
in glances that linger,
in words that arrive
at exactly the right moment,
in songs that find you
when you didn’t know
you needed them.

Magic is the invisible thread
pulling moments together
like constellations
we only see
when we finally look up.

It is love that doesn’t end,
just changes form.

A whisper in the dark.
A warmth in the chest.

A presence
that never truly leaves.

And if you’ve felt it—
even once —

you already know
magic is real.

    Nice one, Maggie. I love this poem, especially:

    ‘It lives
    in glances that linger,
    in words that arrive
    at exactly the right moment’

    and

    ‘Magic is the invisible thread
    pulling moments together
    like constellations
    we only see
    when we finally look up.’

    Yes, I believe in magic!

    Indeed its magic we are ever here alive to enjoy and write such beautiful poetry! Loved this one Maggie I feel like this was all of your poem to write…🩷

    Reminds me of a great quote from the old HBO series Carnivale, where i think in the last episode it shows the first test of the Atom bomb in Los Alamos and its that moment where this line delineates, “There was magic then, nobility, and unimaginable cruelty; and so it was until the day that a false sun exploded over Trinity, and Man forever traded away wonder for reason.”

    Your poem is a positive encouragement to those of us that never traded away magic….

    Bravo! 🙏
