Answer and Explanation:

Helen's hands shook when she answered the phone. Even though she had been waiting for that call all week, she was not ready. What-if’s filled her mind uselessly. What if they said she had failed? What if they had found a better candidate for the position? What if she had not failed? What if she got the job and had to move away from everything she knew? She answered, trying to somehow disguise her trembling voice. The woman on the other side of the line sounded cheerful. It was good news; Helen got the job. She thanked the woman, once, twice. Yes, she could start in two weeks. Once she hung up, reality came rushing back. Time to tell her friends and family.

Answer:

The choice of commanding words "Beat! beat! drums! —blow! bugles! blow!" and “Come Up from the Fields Father,” at the beginning of the poems are the most striking, interesting and effective to create the desired atmosphere of the poet.

Explanation:

Each stanza of the poem, “Beat! Beat! Drums!” starts with the words, "Beat! beat! drums! —blow! bugles! blow!" to command for playing the instruments so loudly that can spread everywhere in the surrounding atmosphere. Whitman imagines that the sound fills the churches to congregate the scattered crowd, interrupts scholars from studying, disturbs the bride and groom trying to get privacy, and calls the farmers working in their fields. The words so sound cutting and effective to create the desired atmosphere of the Civil War.  The rhythmic pulse of the beginning line emphasizes the poem's appeal. The short, recurring syllables mimic the sound of beating drums and blowing bugles.  

Walt Whitman composes “Come up from the Fields, Father,” a poem on the topic of war, more precisely the impact that the involvement of a soldier in the war.  The poem begins on a calm autumn day in Ohio, where a farm was tranquil and amazing.  Abruptly the oldest daughter of the household starts calling “Come up from the Fields, Father,” to hear the sad news that their son has been fighting in the Civil War. The choice of words is accurate to create desired atmosphere of war at tranquil moment. Sound impact and alliteration of the properly placed words are the most interesting and effective.
