父亲节，不善于表达的你，可以送一首诗，给同样不善于表达，却永远在默默付出的父亲。

He never looks for praises

praise [preɪz] 赞美

He's never one to boast

boast [boʊst]  自夸

He just goes on quietly working

quietly ['kwaɪətli]  安静地

For those he loves the most

His dreams are seldom spoken
His wants are very few

And most of the time his worries
Will go unspoken too

unspoken [ˌʌn'spoʊkən]  不言而喻的，未说出口的

He's there.... A firm foundation

Through all our storms of life

foundation [faʊn’deɪʃn] 根基

A sturdy hand to hold to
In times of stress and strife

sturdy ['stɜːrdi]  强健的

strife [straɪf]  争吵

A true friend we can turn to
When times are good or bad

One of our greatest blessings,
The man that we call Dad.

blessing ['blesɪŋ] 幸事

— "Silent Strong Dad”
