  1. My Papa’s Waltz Poem by Theodore Roethke Digital story by: Ms. Silverstein

  2. The whiskey on your breath   Could make a small boy dizzy;   But I hung on like death:   Such waltzing was not easy.

  3. We romped until the pans   Slid from the kitchen shelf;   My mother’s countenance  Could not unfrown itself.

  4. The hand that held my wrist   Was battered on one knuckle;   At every step you missedMy right ear scraped a buckle.

  5. You beat time on my head   With a palm caked hard by dirt,   Then waltzed me off to bed   Still clinging to your shirt.

  6. Still clinging to your shirt.

  7. No text (reflective)
