The poem personifies grass in a way that it is covering up all of the bodies and causing people to forget important sites of battle where so many people died. In the poem it says "</span>Two years, ten years, and the passengers ask the conductor:
<span> What place is this?" This shows that the grass has grown so much that the people passing by do not even recognize it, and the sacrifices people made there are being forgotten. </span>

Explanation:
Miss Lottie’s house was the most ramshackle of all our ramshackle homes. The sun and rain had long since faded its rickety frame siding from white to a sullen gray. The boards themselves seemed to remain upright not from being nailed together but rather from leaning together, like a house that a child might have constructed from cards. A brisk wind might have blown it down, and the fact that it was still standing implied a kind of enchantment that was stronger than the elements. There it stood and as far as I know is standing yet—a gray, rotting thing with no porch, no shutters, no steps, set on a cramped lot with no grass, not even any weeds—a monument to decay.

She making fun of it in a way
Answer:
The best description of the weather in Moingona, Iowa before the train crash is Option C: There was very heavy rain, which caused Honey Creek to rise and flood.
Explanation:
This train accident occurred on the afternoon of July 6, 1881. There had been heavy thunderstorms that caused flash flooding and this washed out the timbers of the railway trestle that crossed Honey Creek. A locomotive was sent from Moingona to check track conditions. It fell into Honey Creek with a crew of four men on board.
A young adolescent of about 16 years old Kate Shelley heard the crash and also thought of a passenger train that would be heading the same route. She found two survivors and went to get help, traveling a long distance to sound the alarm and risking her own safety by crossing another bridge on her hands and knees. She is considered a heroine and has a bridge named after her.
