Describe the feelings of the poet as she looks at her mother beside her? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The poet depicts her mother as an elderly woman who had become paler, weaker, and more frail with time.

Explanation:

The author of the lovely poem My Mother at Sixty-Six is Kamala Das. In this poetry, ageing is discussed, namely how parents age and become frail. Ageing is a necessary and final stage of human life.

The poet suddenly remembers how old her mother has gotten as she glances at her sleeping mother in the car on the way to the airport. She has becoming frail, pallid, and aged. The poet remembers having a fear of losing her mother as a child while she studies her mother's lifeless, corpse-like visage. She is concerned about not knowing when she will see her mother again.
