<p>Commentary.   <br />
<br />
                                                                                         <br />
<br />
Box Hill, in the coils of the “Zig-Zags.”<br />
Dry valleys, now, climate previously dried.<br />
Water-tables fell.<br />
Pervasive, within such spring-turfed, chalky soils,<br />
Juniper, Yew, Box, Beech, Wild Clematis (Old Man’s Beard)<br />
abound.<br />
Several vehicles negotiate the switch-back, hairpin bends<br />
of the Box Hill “Zig-Zags.”<br />
West-facing slopes, set ablaze,<br />
as the sun dips to the horizon<br />
amongst these beloved slopes,<br />
rippling hills and vales of the North Downs.<br />
What happy memories of walks, camps and <br />
camaraderie they bring!</p>
