What impression of grandmother does the speaker give in the poem 'Grandmother'?


1 Answer


 The speaker gives the all-loving and all-inspiring impression of his grandmother in this poem. He feels as if her memory is flowing inside him. He feels as if her memory gives sparkles as the ashes give at night. He remembers her purple scarf and her plastic shopping bag. He remembers her warm and damp hand with the smell of roots. The poet presents a deep sense of intimacy and closeness to his grandmother even after her death. He can not forget her.
