In the poem‚ My Papa’s Waltz‚ Theodore Roethke talks about a young boy’s relationship with his father. I think that the poem talks about how the young boy loves his father but their relationship is strained. I also think that the young boy fears that his father will drink himself to death.

Roethke uses great word choice too. It is imperative

My Facing Frederick Essay “If there is no struggle‚ there is no progress”. Bolden - a snare of a snare. This quote‚ said by a man who changed the world‚ in which the quote explained that man’s life without once saying his name at all‚ is written in a book that tells his life story.

UNIVERSITY IS AS A RESULT OF STUDENTS BASING THEIR CHOICE OF PROGRAM ON PRESTIGE. Introduction "There is‚ perhaps‚ no college decision that is more thought-provoking‚ gut wrenching and rest-of-your life oriented--or disoriented--than the choice of a major."

Upon reading Roethke’s “My Papa’s Waltz” one would think the poem entirely talks about the dance and how it was special and memorable to the speaker just by the title. However‚ this ‘waltz’ is interpreted many different ways in the poem. The poem starts off describing the speaker’s presumed father’s smell of “whiskey on your breath” to show that he was drinking heavily (Roethke 1). This smell can also be described as quite strong because of the fact that it “could make a small boy dizzy” (2). This
