Oh, beautiful. The images are lovely and vivid, I can see and feel everything happening...I love the oranges in particular. I usually can't stand poetry that tries to describe food, but only because most of it is so terrible; I loved that stanza.
And the third stanza, too, was very moving. I was at a funeral once for a man I didn't know (he was about 50), and I cried. I couldn't really understand why. I could really identify with that image.
Grand words don't seem right for this poem; it's simple and sweet and just right. I usually show off my vocabulary with a nice "magnificent" or "fantastic"; but this isn't either of those things. It's bittersweet and heartbreaking and quietly reminiscent. Wonderful.

This is my favorite of your poems so far. I love how you've taken the weeping willows, and turned it around for the willows to be weeping for the boy. And I love the last two lines. They're very conclusive to the poem. Much better than in the Whitewashed Walls poem, if I do say. I'm not always one for puntcuation, but this is such a narrative poem, I think that it would benefit from periods and commas and whatnot. Just a suggestion though, of course. Good luck in your future pieces :)

Subtle and touching... The tone is smooth and sort of serene, and I like the gentle rhythmic beat

this is really gd. it captures all the childhood memories you hold dear to you and draws the reader in.
you maintained a gd sad tone throughout the whole poem. that was really well done.
your ending was really well done.
wonderful work here!

Wow, very powerful. This may be your best poem yet, though the saddest. But still, I think it's great.
