The poem A Photograph carries the message of mortality and transient nature of human beings. The whole poem is about loss, separation and sorrow. Unlike sea, we humans change quickly and die one day.
In addition, the poem also carries the message of bearing the pain. In the poem, the mother learns to live with the pain of loss (of her youth). Similarly, the poet has learnt to live with the loss of her mother. She is sad but still she is living.
