Yesterday morning, I preached from Genesis 4:17-5:32. Part of that text is the unique description of what happened to Enoch, in contrast to everyone else who died: "Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him" (Genesis 5:24).
I love this little poem by Luci Shaw, which aptly captures what happened to Enoch.
Enoch

Enoch
crossed the gap
another way;
he changed his pace
but not
his company.
