In the first stanza, how does the poet describe her mother?

In the first stanza of the poem, the poet describes her mother as a very old lady who was dozing on their journey to Cochin. Her mouth was open just like how the mouth of old people becomes when they sleep. Her facial expression was grey that has been compared as similar to that of a corpse.
