STANZA 4:
Now she's.................silence silences.
Now, it has been 12 years since her mother passed away. The girl in the photograph seems like a different person altogether. Thus, the use of the words, that girl' and about the fact that her mother has passed away leaving behind nothing but memories and photograph like this one. There is nothing to be said. It is a part of life and on thinking of it, one really has no words to express how one feels. The Silence of the whole situation silences the poet and leaves her quiet
Q1 What is the mood of the poet here?
Answers
Explanation:
The poet looks at the photograph of her mother which was taken when her mother was 12 years old. She had gone for a sea holiday with her cousins Betty and Dolly. While they were paddling on the beach, her uncle clicked a photograph. Each of the cousins was holding the hands of the poet’s mother who was the oldest among them. All the three of them stood smiling through their hair while the photo was taken. Her mother had a sweet face, but it was a time before she was born. Years fled past since then. Her mother grew up into an adult. They all underwent changes while the sea stood still.
After about twenty or thirty years the poet’s mother would look at the photograph laughing nostalgically and remembering the past. She would appreciate the dress worn by her cousins Betty and Dolly. The sea holiday belonged to the past of her mother and the poet still remembers how her mother would laugh looking at the snapshot. For the poet both these bring great sadness and an acute sense of loss.
Her mother died 12 years ago and now the poet has nothing to say about this circumstance of the photograph. The silence of the whole situation silences the poet and leaves her quiet.
