Pls answer this questions . From the photograph eng . Asap

1. Who is the 'big girl' refered to in the poem?
2. What does 'terribly transcient' mean?
3. What is the contrast drawn by the poet in the above phrase?
4. Why does the poet's mother laugh at the snapshot?

Dear student,

1. The 'big girl' in the poem is the poet's mother as seen in the photograph.

2. 'Terribly transient' is used in the poem because human life is not permanent and anyone can die anytime. The poet has lost her mother so she is using the term transient to tell that human life is short lived and terrible because the loss of her mother is unbearable.

3. The contrast drawn by the poet is between the 'transient feet' of the girls in the photograph and Nature which is permanent. Human life is short-lived whereas Nature is timeless.

4. The poet’s mother laughed while recalling a moment of her past captured in the photograph. She looks back at her childhood days with nostalgia and recollects her innocent joys. Looking at the picture years later brings in her mind the fond memories. She laughs at the way they were dressed up for the beach holiday.

For getting more assistance on the remaining queries we would request you to kindly ask only one single query in each thread.
Regards

4.
