The poem 'Photograph' is written by Shirley Toulson. The poem is presented in nostalgic way (to remember the past in a sad or wistful way). The poetess is seeing the cardboard/photograph and looking in the past. It depicts her mother in her youth, cycling with her cousins. The mother was the eldest among the cousins; she was twelve years old. Their uncle was seeing them through the camera to get a photograph. They were smiling with their hair blowing in their faces. Beside them, there is a sea . Their feet were transient (moving, not fixed). It means their feet were covered with mud, and they were going to wash their feet with seawater. It was a beach holiday.
Now the poetess remembers that's how her mother used to look at that photograph years later. Her mother used to smile and point out how the girls were dressed for a holiday on the beach. The poetess remembers her mother's smile.
At the end, the poetess is saying that her mother passed away 12 years ago. Her mother lost her holiday on the beach, and she has lost her mother. The poetess feels the silence of sadness, considering the memories of a past that cannot be relived.
the poetess is sad as her mother is no more in this world. she is all alone. the poetess is looking at the photograph of her mother when she was twelve and trying to analyse the snap taken. she is pretending to be happy as to show the world. also to avoid her loneliness and sadness she is trying to pretend so but inwardly she is sad because of her mother's death.
The poem talks about how memories from the past cannot be relived, and life is not static. It is presented in a nostalgic manner.
The poem begins with the poet looking at a very old photograph of her mother at twelve years of age.
