What doesthe girl yearn for? What does this poem tell you about Amanda?

The girlyearns for solitude and peace. In all the things she dreams of, shewants to stay alone. If she were a mermaid, then she wanted to driftslowly on a calm sea where she would be the only inhabitant. She evengoes on to imagine if she were an orphan. In that case, she wouldroam about the street in silence and freedom. She also wishes to beRapunzel though she would not let her hair down for anybody to climbup. This shows that she is fed up of the continuous scolding shereceives from her mother. She wants to go away from her home to someplace where she would not be constantly nagged and would be able tolive peacefully.
