1. Poem - Amanda ; Poet - Robert Klein
2. The central idea of the poem revolves around how a child is constantly nagged by her mother. The poetess sheds light on how a child is always monitored and questioned about her actions by her mother. Therefore, Amanda dreams to get away from her troubles.
3. The poem Amanda is about a small child whose parents are forever nagging her about what to do and what not to do. This frequent interference makes her very unhappy. It seems as if she is not free to do anything that she wants to do. She wants freedom from all restrictions. She dreams to lead a life of a mermaid in a Languid, emerald sea with her being the only inhabitant there. She feels that an orphan has more freedom than her. She also wished to lead a calm and quiet life in a tower like that of Rapunzel with nobody to disturb her.
4. I usually do not have anything to say in return of what they have to say, beacause whatever they say, is of course for my own goodwill.
5. Yes, Amanda was listening to her parents when they were scolding her, as it is obvious that she felt pestered when she got scolded, and also she did all her homework.
