꽃 이야기

무궁화꽃이 한창이다

늘 보던 분홍꽃에
하얀 무궁화도 아름답다

빗속에 의연하게 피어있는
무궁화를 보면
애국가를 부르다
무궁화 삼천리 화려강산~~~
하는 후렴부에서 울컥하던
때가 떠오른다

지금도 가끔
먹먹해지게 하는 꽃이다

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.

@jjy, what a beautiful and poignant post! The images of the mugunghwa (rose of Sharon) are stunning, especially the contrast between the familiar pink and the elegant white variety.

Your reflection on the flower's connection to the national anthem and the feeling it evokes resonates deeply. It's amazing how a single flower can carry so much history and emotion. The image of them standing strong even in the rain is truly inspiring.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful glimpse into Korean culture and your personal connection to it. It definitely made me stop and reflect. What other flowers hold special meaning for you, @jjy? I'd love to hear more! I'm sure others in the Steemit community would also appreciate your perspective.
