Part 1:
My Papa Waltz
The poem “My Papa Waltz” is written by Theodore Roethke which represents a boundless love of a son for his father, even though the father was aggressive towards his family. The poem shows how the son loved his father and had a strong desire to spent most of the time with him. The father may be a drunkard and is very exhausted. Hence, out of irritation and frustration he beat his son. Here, the poet also talks about the mother of the son who remains quite as she did not have the audacity to speak and hence wants to stay away as she recognized the frustration of his husband was due to poverty and hard life, yet the eternal bonding between the father and the son still remained intact. Although the father gets frustrated and hits or slaps his son every night back from his work, still the son clings to him for the want of love and affection. The poet in this poem uses some beautiful connotation like the word ‘dance’ which signifies the enjoyment and happiness the son shows towards his father. While the word ‘buckle’ depicts the slap or violence that the father demonstrate towards his son. The poet used some remarkable metaphors like ‘Still clinging to your shirt’, ‘my ear scraped a buckle’ and ‘but I hang on like death’ simply signifies how the boy clings and stayed with his frustrated father. The poem consists of four stanzas and each stanza has four lines.
