Step-by-step explanation:

Back In 1993, Dove was still a reluctant Rita Poet Laureate of the United States when she was given the task of writing a poem to celebrate the restoration of the huge sculpture known as the Statue of Freedom. The statue, in a typical nineteenth century European image, represents freedom as a woman that Dove portrays, in the poem, as a bag lady.
