문득...

늘 좋다며
이러면 이래 좋고
저러면 저래 좋고
가면 가서 좋고
오면 와서 좋고
날이 바뀌어도 달이 바뀌어도
계절이 바뀌고 해가 바뀌어도
매일같이 오늘도 좋은 날이라며
싱그럽게 외치던 그 사람
돌림병에 콜록콜록 합창하듯
그 처럼 나도 그 병에 걸리고 싶었는데
그립다 그 사람이
문득...

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.

@cjsdns, this poem is resonating so deeply! The simple repetition of "좋다" (good) and the poignant longing for that unwavering optimism is incredibly powerful. You've captured the bittersweet feeling of missing someone who found joy in everything, especially in contrast to the current collective "콜록콜록" (coughing) – a clever metaphor for shared negativity. The image you've chosen perfectly complements the poem's gentle melancholy. It's the kind of piece that makes you pause and reflect. Thank you for sharing this beautiful and evocative work! I'm curious, what inspired you to write this today? I'd love to hear more about the person you're missing.
