[pct-l] Ode to John Donovan



"Ode to John Donovan" by Strider

Oh John, where have you gone to?
We all seek ye, yet we haven't a clue.
Your spirit echoes in our hearts,
all over these Southern California parts.

Oh John Donovan sought out his glory
upon the PCT, so goes the story.
His footsteps in the deep snows,
disappeared in the alpine glows.

Oh John, we hear you still . . . 
your spirit rests upon some unknown hill . . .
and when the  glorious sun sets on great San Jacinto,
We'll all see its reflection in the beautiful afterglow.

Oh John, where have you gone to? . . .

(this came to me and I began singing it loadly to the canyons as I climbed up 
the north side of SJ today)
