In the context of "Waiting for You Who Will Not Come," the narrator remembers the marigolds as symbols of hope and beauty amidst despair. The vibrant flowers represent the moments of joy and resilience that stand out against the backdrop of longing and unfulfilled expectations.

Ultimately, the marigolds signify the importance of embracing beauty, even when faced with absence.
