In John McCrae's poem "In Flanders Fields," the dead bodies of soldiers are personified as if they are still alive—able to speak to the reader and pass a torch, and trying to sleep.

What effect does this personification have on the poem?

a - It injects religious themes having to do with the afterlife into the poem.

b- It implies that war isn't so bad because the soldiers aren't really dead.

c- It makes the reader feel intimate with the dead soldiers and able to understand them.

d- It creates a frightening mood, for the dead soldiers may suddenly come to life.
