Exploration
Take a step out in nature every day and each time you're bound to discover something new. That impulse to explore and discover is central to "maggie and milly and molly and may." Sometimes people lose that impulse in the business of everyday life, but our speaker reminds us that, if we just have fun now and then, we too might find something we weren't necessarily looking for. That lack of intent, in favor of playfulness, opens the door to new ideas and adventures while also shedding some light into who we are as individuals.
Listen up, fuddy-duddies. The poem's playful mood suggests that maybe the adult explorers of the world can learn something from these girls.
Curiosity is essential to any exploration in the poem, especially since it seems to open the doors of imagination, which makes any discovery all the more fulfilling and insightful.
