It is from the Lesson "My Mother at sixty six by Kamla das "

Dear Student,

It is true that the poem reflects the idea of ageing, decay and death. It brings out the natural complexities of the human mind and the natural fear of losing our parents. Ageing is an indispensable part of human life which we have to accept, irrespective of the pain it cultivates in our hearts. The poet speaks about her mother who is growing old and has a pale and weak face.

Her mother sleeps while travelling, as we realise that she requires rest. The poet recalls how even as a child she has experienced the fear of losing her mother. But now her fear has changed into the fear of losing her mother to death. Her attention is arrested by her mother’s failing health and yet she smiles, only with the hope of meeting her soon.

Regards
