In the poem, the poet has presented an image of a broad battlefield and an image of a bivouac, a temporary camp for soldiers.

These images have successfully created a strong effect in our minds. The poet wants us to take this life seriously, to win this battle of life like a hero. He wants us to understand that we have come to this temporary camp called ‘life’ just to win it and we have to go back to our real home, that is heaven. The poet has been successful in delivering his message through these images.
