Favorite Dad:
Hello!
Father's love, hidden in the light of the years, I was not your pride, but you regard me as a treasure.
When I was young, your big rough hands helped me wash my feet. Now I can feel the temperature of your palm when I recall it; Every day when I come back from work, I hold my little hand written Pinyin and Chinese characters. In preschool, I was the only one in my class who could write Pinyin. I proudly told my teachers and children that my father taught me this; When I was in primary school, I sat on my bike and leaned on your broad back, which was so warm; These scenes seem to be just yesterday. These are the colorful, happy and warm childhood life you gave me!
In order to give my brother and I better living conditions, you left home to work on the railway project in Nanjing of the 18th Bureau thousands of miles away. Since then, you have been a "busy man" and can only go home once a year. You will write a letter to your family every month to report peace to your family, tell your family what you have seen outside, and let us feel the difference in the outside world.
I went to your company to play with my brother in the summer after I entered the university, and witnessed your hard work. Almost every night, when we fall asleep, I don't know how many phone calls you have answered, how many times you have got up to go to the construction site... What I see is just a summer vacation, and I don't know how many busy figures you have day and night. Dad, although you are just an ordinary railway construction worker, you said that as long as the railway is built down to earth, you are making contributions to the country and the people. We should be proactive and responsible in our work. We should not be discouraged or afraid of difficulties in the face of difficult work. We should dare to bear hardships and assume responsibilities. Later, after my brother and I joined the subway construction business, I really understood your sense of mission and responsibility. At present, the subway construction in the country is accelerating. When I think of myself as a part of it, I feel proud
……
The mountain in my eyes, the god in my heart, once I thought you were omnipotent, but one day you will also be old, tired, and sick. Now I think I will protect you.
……
Dad, dusty memory quickly flashed in front of me, and tears confused my eyes again and again.
……
I drank alone, drank the snow, and lost myself for another year. Another year has passed. Here, I really thank my father for his upbringing, thank you, dear father!
When I write here, I cannot help but recite a little poem:
The sky is full of flying clouds
The harp plays
Drink a cup of Xiaofeng Canyue
Reflect my father's back
Time has solidified for a long time
Envy tea floating water
I don't know the shadow in the cloud
Play alone
When can I return
The haze in front of your eyes can be eliminated
It's more impressive to stay here in New Year
Father beat the drum
Sparkling in the distance
It seems to be my call from afar
I want to say: I love your father! May my father be happy and healthy forever!
