The correct answer is A. a gift from my grandfather
Explanation:
A nonessential appositive phrase refers to a set of words that are not necessary for the main sentence but provide extra information or explain one of the essential elements. They can be identified because they are commonly enclosed by commas that show they are not essential to the sentence. This means, in the sentence presented "a gift from my grandfather" is the nonessential appositive phrase because this phrase explains the element "our telescope" but it is not essential to understand the main sentence "Our family enjoys stargazing with our telescope when we go camping" and it is enclosed by commas as all appositive phrases of this kind.

Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I think your analysis is good, but since they are specifically asking you to analyze the formal aspects of each poem, I would add a few more things.
In Dickinson's "I dwell in Possibility," the use of capital letters does emphasize those words, but there are many other poetic devices that create meaning and affect the poem, such as metaphors ("A fairer House," which refers to poetry, for instance), a vivid imagery (it is impossible not to picture a house in your mind when you read this poem, beautiful, ample, with many windows, and the sky as its roof), and assonance (words such as "Prose" and "Doors" or "Eye" and "Sky" have resembling sounds), among others. These devices have been carefully chosen in order to convey a very praising description of poetry.
"Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night," by Dylan Thomas, is a call to resist death and fight for life with tenacity, and the use of specific formal elements contribute greatly to convey that message. Thomas uses repeatedly the verbs "rage" and "do" in their imperative form, in an attempt to convince his dying father to resist and to not accept death without fighting for his life first. He also uses various poetic devices, such as alliteration ("go, gentle, good"), simile ("Blind eyes could blaze like meteors"), oxymoron ("curse" and "bless" have opposing meanings, yet he places them together) and hyperbole (he is exaggerating his father's qualities when he says "Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight"), among others. In addition, throughout the poem there are many terms ("night," "dying of the light," "sad height") that speak symbolically, yet tactfully, of the unavoidable death.
