Question

why does poets mother laughter past for her which poetic device is used in this line
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:'laboured' conveys that both the poet and her mother were struggling, trying to cope with their loss. Yet, both realised that the loss was final and they had to accept it, therefore 'ease'. 'laboured ease of loss' is an oxymoron, a poetic device where two opposites are used together.
