"The leaves are falling one by one
and very soon the day is done
and then the week and then the year
and all the things that seemed so dear
have vanished, and not left a trace.
The slightest wrinkle on a face
the smallest particle of lace....
Please bring it back
I am not done
and want to see it in the sun.
I want to live it one more time
my hand in yours a constant rhyme.
By Mark Holian

I will miss him and the wonderful...

I was sad to learn on Mark's death. We were close when I lived in NOLA between 1968 & 1974. As communalists at Canal Street, knowing Mark helped me learn who I was and who I was capable of being. I am indebted to him and the other person [George Thompson] in the DOMARGE triangle for financial support for my studies, for the first car in my own name and many other opportunities for growth and personal development. I will miss him but feel good about the good parts of knowing him.
