It doesn't this poem uses a light comic effect of how a son and father playfully danced around. Then the father had to put the son to bed and he didn't want to go.
This is clearly an example of dramatic irony.

The presence of irony in the line "Still clinging to your shirt" may suggest a juxtaposition between the joyful dance of the waltz and the rough handling of the child by the father, hinting at a sense of tension or discomfort underlying the seemingly innocent moment.

∙ 15y agoThe metaphor is the waltzing. The father waltzing with the boy is a metaphor for one of at least two things, depending on how you interpret the poem. Waltzing could be a metaphor for playful roughhousing. Or, it could be a metaphor for an abusive beating.
