Answer 1

The poem Amanda, opens to us the thoughts and wishes of a teenager. Amanda is any teenager out of fiction. She does not like to be ordered about. She is too tired of her guardian's nagging and scolding that she decides to keep quiet and not react. She is lost in her world of imaginations. She wishes for nothing but freedom. She feels like a bird who has deep desires to fly away from the warmth of her nest. Her thoughts are varied according to situations. This poem can be an important lesson to parents about the weakness in communication with their children especially teenagers.
