soon not one will know of the war - not one will care soon - that it was done not one will mind - neither bird nor tree - men dead - utterly

So many forgotten wars, and heroes. But Fortunately here in Australasia we have ANZAC day, when we acknowledge such sacrifice.

war, death, and time . . . all three flow together . . . may we always remember! Your poem captured this haunting image well -- great wording at the end.

I should hope that someone would be left to care.
