Sunlight glinting off the leaves
The wind is blowing through the trees
Path is narrow
And we walk it straight
To the place
Where it shall begin
The laughter and memories
Tossed about with food and drink
Clouds race across the deep blue sky
As the time in this world
Stands still
We’re together forever
In this place
Where the leaves never change
And a smile stands on each face
No goodbyes are ever said
In the place where memories land

This is actually a really good poem. It's tranquil and happy yet unsettling and creepy, it's also a cool theme. I think this is my favorite out of the work you've posted.
