class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">1974年12月29日,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">一个小山村的早晨,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">天气格外的晴朗,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">蓝天白云,晴空万里,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">严寒的冬天却呈现出</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">春天般的气息。</span></p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">圣山庙旁,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">一山村汽车小站,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">异常喜庆,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">敲锣打鼓、热闹非凡,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">8个胸戴大红花的</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">应征入伍青年,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">在人民公社武装部部长带领下,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">山村干部群众、</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">亲朋好友的夹道中,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">怀着不同的心情向小站走去。</span></p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">他们中</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">小的18岁,大的21岁,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">身穿母亲做的衣衫,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">背着各式的布袋行李包,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">口袋中装着父母给的,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">多的几元,少的几角钱。</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">心中有一个共同的想法,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">为的是走出山村,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">跳出龙门,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">摆脱面朝黄土背朝天,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">不种田,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">不吃蕃薯,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">有白馒头、米饭吃。</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">我只听妈说:</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">“你到部队有白米饭白馒头吃,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">我以后到你部队</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">吃雪白大馒头去。”</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:18px;">(我妈这一愿望时过20年,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:18px;">到1995年5月去部队看我才实现。)</span></p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">没有专车接送,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">等待过路到县城的早班</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">公交客车,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">汽车到了,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">父母,兄弟姐妹们</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">拉着咱们的手,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">有的父母心里想着当兵要打仗,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">怕与儿子一别再也难见一面,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">有的⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">他们都恋恋不舍,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">流着眼泪,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">有的泣不成声,都说着:</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">到部队马上来信⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">要听部队首长的话⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">自己要当心身体,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;"><span class="ql-cursor"></span>不要想家⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">我二哥紧紧地拉着我的手</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">两眼热泪盈眶,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">一直送我到公交车门旁</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">依依惜别的放开手看我上车。</span></p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">我在8个应征入伍青年当中</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">年龄、个子都最小,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">我挤到汽车车箱最后边,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">望着向我们挥着手的</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">乡亲们、父母、兄弟,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">耳边回荡着再见⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">再见啦⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">到部队马上来信啊的声音⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">我含着眼泪挥着手</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">心里默默地喊着爸妈,</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">哥哥、弟弟再见⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">再见啦⋯</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">告别父母兄弟、乡亲们!</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">人生第一次远离爹娘</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">告别小山村!</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="font-size:22px;">戎马生涯从此启航!</span></p> <p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block">感谢带我当兵的周生元、杜清湖、史亚东三位老首长</p><p class="ql-block">感谢送我当兵的人民公社武装部曹存章部长</p><p
