"My Papa's Waltz" by Theodore Roethke

I am really horrible at interpreting poetry, but I'll give it a shot. It seems like the "Papa" has a drinking problem and gets in fights. This doesn't change the son's opinion of him because he loves his father. it seems like this poem was written after the father died because it seems like a remembrance of him.
