"Come Up From the Fields Father" is a poem by Walt Whitman. It was first published in the 1861 poetry volume Drum-Taps. It was one of his most frequently anthologized poems during his lifetime, and resonated with many Americans who had experienced deaths of family members in the Civil War. The poem centers around a family living on a farm in Ohio who receives a letter informing them that their son has been killed, and chronicles their grief, particularly that of the boy's mother.
