To all those that appreciated the work of Mark in assembling, creating and maintaining the offerings he provided, the time for goodbyes has come. Mark has passed away after his battle with cancer. While he was a selfless and humble man, wood s lot was one of his great accomplishments and joys in life. Thank you for your support all these years.

Oracle
Seamus Heaney

Hide in the hollow trunk
of the willow tree,
its listening familiar,
until, as usual, the
cuckoo your name
across the fields.
You can hear them
draw the poles of stiles
as they approach
calling you out:
small mouth and ear
in a woody cleft,
lobe and larynx
of the mossy places.
