In the poem "A PHOTOGRAPH", what does the line "ITS SILENCE SILENCES" mean??

The photograph reflects a dear, old memory of the poet's mother. While her mother was alive, she would look at the photograph and reminiscence about the day spent at the sea. However, after the mother's death, the photograph elicits no words from the poet. It is a reminder of her mother's death. This harsh realization of loss silences her.
