1. Amanda says that she is an orphan. She is free and roams in the street. There is soft dust in the street under her feet.
2.The speaker asks Amanda not to eat chocolate. It is because she has had acne already. Eating chocolate might create more pimples. Amanda listens to the speaker without raising her face.
3.The speaker thinks that Amanda is sulking and becoming moody. He thinks that Amanda is always moody. He asks her not to sulk because he is afraid that people will think that he is nagging Amanda.
4.The centre of the poem, Amanda by Robin Klein, is freedom. The most significant wealth every child wishes to possess is his or her freedom.
5.Her mother doesn't want her to hunch her shoulders and bend her body down. She stops her from eating chocolates as it would not be good for her pimpled face. She wants her to stop sulking as others would think that she is being nagged by her mother.
