In this poem, the speaker wants to remind people that even after the grass covers the battlefields and clears the view of the dead bodies, the memory always sticks with people. Although some of the readers haven't experienced the battlefields directly, chances are great that someone from their family or friends has and that it left great scars on their body, soul and mind.  Except for making us compassionate, this poem is also a warning that all the suffering and horrors of war mustn't be forgotten.
