Question

What is meaning of filling in the poem oh i wish i'd looked after me teeth (stanza 2)

Answer 1

Hey...its full summary of stanza 2.....The poet persona says here that she wishes she were more willing to give up gobstoppers and buy something else with her allowance then when she still had more teeth than filling. Now that her teeth are almost filled artificially, she realizes her mistake.

Answer 2

Hi there !

_______________________

The poet wishes that she should have taken care of our teeth. She should not have thought about eating of a large and hard sweet. She should have spent her money on the eatables that might not cause harm to her teeth.
