if u see this video u can understand

Explanation:

The poem 'My Mother at Sixty-six' is rich in imagery. ... The “wan, pale' face of the mother is compared to 'a late winter's moon'. The poem excels in contrasts. The old 'dozing' lady inside is contrasted with the young trees “sprinting” and merry children “spilling” out of their homes.

Answer 2

The figure of speech personification has been used .

The device of personification has been used by the poet with respect to show the contrary image of her mother and trees running by side of the road but actually the trees was not running and the children are playing outside . she is not happy because her mother was not in good condition and very sick . In this bad condition of her mother she want to be with her but she can't help . It is important for her to go .

The poet brought the image of happy children "flowing out of the house" for contrast. The sight of children leaving home full of energy gives us an image of energetic and spontaneous abundance. This image is in stark contrast to the "drowsy" old mother. Its "gray" face looks corpse-pale and lifeless. She is the image of aging, decay and passivity. The contrast between the two images enhances the poetic effect.
