overwhelmed by the charge of intensity running
through me, easily seen by the bullets of sweat
that line my forehead, starting their trickle to
my already dampened cheeks. The time seemed to
take on a fast pace. ...

Young Boy Poem Father
347 words
My Papa's Waltz By Theodore Roethke This poem has
a kept form. Even at a glance, it has a set form.
It consists of four quatrains, each line being an
iambic trimeter. The poem is about a young boy
waltzing with his father. One can assume that the
speaker is a young boy, or perhaps the poet
reminiscing his youth. The father dances around in
a haphazard manner, knocking over pans in the
kitchen. Upon first glance, the tone is humorous.
The picture one immediately forms is rather
comical with the b...
