PLEASE HELP Read this excerpt from Walt Whitman’s poem “In Cabin'd Ships at Sea” from Leaves of Grass.

The tones of unseen mystery, the vague and vast suggestions of the
briny world, the liquid-flowing syllables,
The perfume, the faint creaking of the cordage, the melancholy rhythm,
The boundless vista and the horizon far and dim are all here,
And this is ocean's poem.

Why did the author most likely choose this structure for his poem?

A.) The varied line lengths provide a steady rhythm.
B.) The long-line structure allows Whitman to include a list.
C.) The shorter lines provide Whitman’s background information.
D.) The long and short lines create a visual image of waves.

“heartwork each day is born with a sunrise and ends in a sunset, the same way we open our eyes to see the light, and close them to hear the dark. you have no control over how your story begins or ends. but by now, you should know that all things have an ending. every spark returns to darkness. every sound returns to silence. and every flower returns to sleep with the earth. the journey of the sun and moon is predictable. but yours, is your ultimate art.” ― suzy kassem what does this quote mean to you? and why? i'm not looking for anything in particular, i just wanted to know. : )
