Hello Friend!
I have your answer here:
“All three stood still to smile through their hair
At the uncle with the camera. A sweet face,
My mother’s that was before I was born.
And the sea, which appears to have changed less,
Washed their terribly transient feet.”
Answer a) The three people who were in their photograph were the poet, Shirely Toulson's mother and her aunts.
They were at the beach on their summer holiday.
Answer b) The moment was captured by their uncle with the photograph.
Answer c) The poetic device used in the above stanza is alliteration, terribly - transient.
Answer d) The sea is a part of nature which is eternal and not dynamic in it's nature. The word 'feet' signifies mortal human lives which have a certain time period to exist and also change very quickly.
