I thought that this poem incorporated just the right amount of humor while also painting a vivid and nostalgic image of aging as well as the close relationship between a father and his child. I like that the ramen and other food items were what the story revolved around because it plays into the idea of meals such as dinner being something that people often bond over and I feel that these snapshots helped me to get into the moment/memory that the speaker was creating. If anything were to be expounded upon I would wish to see more of the conversation that was shared between the father and the child in the moments they ate.
