Aurora's mother dies four years after her birth, making it rather difficult for her father to bring her up because she was not only a reminder of his beloved wife, but also because men are not groomed to bring up the children. Her father then dies when she is 13, forcing her to live with her aunt. Her father fell madly in love with her mother, he was made uncommon, but does not take a step further to live the life as a free spirit, because she dies. He becomes melancholy over his loss, yet must raise the young aurora. "I Aurora Leigh was born to make my father sadder"

"OF writing many books there is no end;
And I who have written much in prose and verse
For others' uses, will write now for mine,–

As when you paint your portrait for a friend,
Who keeps it in a drawer and looks at it
Long after he has ceased to love you, just
To hold together what he was and is."

-Often people look at photographs of old friends or old lovers, to just remember for a second what you felt like at that moment - and how things have changed so much since that very moment. At one moment you try to unite two periods, two psyches of your life - one past and one present.
Aurora Leigh's comments on motherhood: "kissing full sense into empty words" - mother's have an ability to understand their children even when they speak babble. Mothers encourage the children to speak understandable words. Many of the nursery rhymes and lullabys that are sung to babies are rather barbaric and gruesome, but neither mother or baby listens to those words, it is just there mere sound of the mother's
voice comforting the child.
