Central Idea of the Poem– MESSAGE OF MY MOTHER AT 66
On her way to the airport from her parents’ house as she is leaving for Cochin, the poet is driving in her car with her mother beside her. When she chances upon her mother sleeping, she notices how old her mother has grown for the first time. She is disturbed and turns her eyes away to focus on young trees and younger children instead. Again after the security check at the airport, she notices her mother’s aging face. This fills her with the fear she had experienced since childhood – that of her mother dying. But she does not let that fear show on her face. She smiles and bids her mother goodbye, promising to see her soon

The poem is about a daughter's insecurities on noticing her mother's aged and pale face which was the result of her advancing age. Thus, the title which defines her mother's age, is an apt title.
