Extract based question---) I looked again at her,wan,pale as a late winter's moon. Q1) Explain wan, pale as a late winter's moon? Q2) What was the childhood's fear of the poet?

Dear Student,

1) The late winter's moon, which is waning, looks pale. The author compares her mother's face to that, saying it looks pale and similar to that of a corpse. 

2) The author had a childhood fear of losing her mother. She is scared of letting her go and lead a life without her.

Regards
