Q12. Who is the​

Answer 1

Smiling

Explanation:

In the poem, 'My Mother at Sixty Six' the poet, Kamala Das smiled at her mother while parting and assured her that she would see her soon. It was a forced smile and not a natural one as she was hiding the anxiety and fear of loosing her mother.

She had come to see her mother; after spending a few days with her, she was going back to her own home. Her mother had accompanied her to the airport to see her off; sitting with her on the rear seat, she realized her mother had grown quite old and weak; fears concerning her approaching death began ruffling her peace of mind. At the airport while saying her goodbye, she tried to hide her fears with the smile.
