Fu Tianlin's Writing Course

Fu Tianlin, 15 years old, was assigned to Jinyun Mountain Farm in the suburb of Chongqing to plant fruit trees after graduating from Chongqing Electric Power Technical School. In the meantime, inspired by life, she began to write poems and completed a collection of poems with the theme of orchard life-Green Notes.

Then, Fu Tianlin completed the poetry collection Between Children and the World, which reflected maternal love, with full enthusiasm. Orchard and maternal love became the theme of Fu Tianlin's creation.

In Fu Tianlin's view, maternal love is the innate affection of women and the highest glory and pride in human nature. It is shining and shrouded, and it has no reason, regardless of nationality, or even unreasonable.

Fu Tianlin once witnessed such a scene: a two-year-old girl took pains to bathe and cut her nails for a bear, and pretended that the bear was ill and took it to the doctor. Fu Tianlin asked her why she did it. The little girl said that because she is the mother of the bear, Fu Tianlin came to the conclusion that maternal love is an instinct and exists in all things.

Between Children and the World was written in the early 1980s, when Fu Tianlin was a mother. She said that in those days, she had just experienced the happiness of being a mother, and her poems presented a simple and natural look. Fu Tianlin believes that such a poem is the best expression of broad and selfless maternal love. In 2000, Fu Tianlin retired with her granddaughter in Beijing. For three years, she hardly read or wrote a poem, and she even completely cut off contact with the outside world. Fu Tianlin said that she was a pure grandmother in the past three years, and this experience made her relive the happiness brought by maternal love again.

With this in mind, in 2003, Fu Tianlin picked up a pen again and recorded her granddaughter's smiling face in poetic language, as well as the dribs and drabs she moved in the past three years. Fu Tianlin said that when she read these poems to her granddaughter, there was a strange luster in her eyes, just like the luster when she first saw a large piece of Bai Yutang when she was one year old. Fu Tianlin's heart moved gently.

What Fu Tianlin brought to the audience in Qinghai is still a short poem with the theme of maternal love. Fu Tianlin believes that avoiding maternal love means avoiding the best qualities of women.

Fu Tianlin is an apple tree full of maternal love.

Today, Fu Tianlin, who is over sixty years old, has a deeper understanding of maternal love.

In Fu Tianlin's new children's poetry collection "Tianshan Mountain will grow taller on Monday", he called the hero in the poem "sister" instead of "child". The stories in the poem are all related to my sister, who is Fu Tianlin's granddaughter.

My sister's parents are diplomats and often go abroad. My grandparents are no longer alive, so when my sister was born, the responsibility of taking care of her fell on my grandmother who was still working in Chongqing Publishing House.

Retire early, give up the title of poet, leave Chongqing's life circle, and go to Beijing alone to take care of this first grandson. Fu Tianlin said that she left with the mentality of "abandoning martial arts". The daughter's home is only over 60 square meters. Fu Tianlin has no room but one floor, and there is no spare place to hire a nanny. Fu Tianlin raised her sister with one hand and one foot, played with her, put her to sleep, cooked for her and taught her to read.

"Before my sister was 3 years old, my life was trivial. I haven't touched a poem, participated in any activities, called any friends, and I am almost isolated from the world. I have evaporated in the poetry world for three years. " No wonder a friend advised her at the beginning: "Would you like to be so' degenerate' and concentrate on being a nanny?"

Fu Tianlin has been a "full-time grandmother" for more than three years. She buys food and takes care of the children every day. None of the neighbors or administrators in the neighborhood knew her identity as a poet. On one occasion, Fu Tianlin was chatting with someone else's nanny in the yard with her sister in her arms, but she was also treated as a nanny and asked, "How much does your host family give you a month?" It became a joke for a while. To this end, she often laughs at herself as a "migrant worker".

On another occasion, Fu Tianlin's mailbox received a sum of thousands of dollars, which became the big news in the community for a while. Everyone has speculated: "What level is the mysterious grandmother in Gao Qian? Have the ability to collect such a large sum of money? " Fu Tianlin is also happy to play the game of a wise head makes a close mouth, making everyone curious and guessing and keeping a low profile.

Until my sister went to kindergarten, Fu Tianlin's busy life suddenly became free, and his hand in writing poems was itchy. When she reflected on the past three years with poetic eyes, her sister's words and deeds, her eyes and actions naturally poured out.

In the next eight days, Fu Tianlin wrote more than 30 children's poems in one breath at the speed of flowing water, and a diary of her sister's growth poems was released. In Fu Tianlin's words, this collection of poems was "completely brought out by children".

However, these poems don't bother Fu Tianlin to think hard at all, and they don't have to be weighed word by word for a few days like writing adult poems, because most of them are my sister's original words. All she did was to find these poems and make them beautiful with a little modification. "So I told my sister that the author of this collection of poems should be my sister and my grandmother is just a ghost."
