Driving Home After the Eclipse, I Make Mental Notes (1st Place in Poetry, 2025 Evangelical Press Awards; published in CRUX: A Quarterly of Christian Thought and Opinion)

—for Jacob (age 13)

What if I forget how suddenly close the moon,
how ominous, fist-solid, unbothered by all this
fuss? I must remember how deep the shadows,
how you came alongside me, like a friend.
The sky a bright bruise, and we mapped ourselves
to Jupiter, to Venus. Then, the unlookable light,
slivering open again to an outpouring.


Remember the tail lights’ slow pour, down
the mountain like lava. Recollect how buoyant
you remained. You kept laughter, held it out,
like a moon stone. Do not forget the glow
of our faces, also moons, traveling a long
road home.


And etch forever the silence that befell us
when the opossum, belonging in the dark,
could not account for the meteor of our car,
rocketing from nowhere. And your hand
in my hand as we wept for the loss.
Remember, O do not forget to remember,
the heartbeat in our clasped hands, the strong,
sorrowful pulse. Maybe mother’s. Maybe son’s.

—after Jeanne Murray Walker
