Goats with their balance, strength and determinism are natural inspiration for mountain trail runners. Balancing on the steepest, rockiest perches and most rugged terrain in a variety of weather conditions and in the untamed mountains they embody the idea of independence, strength, adventure, adaptability and moving outside comfort zone. I have included mountain goats in my poetry from time to time. Here’s an excerpt from “One and the Same” which you can find at candiceburt.com: .
🐐
On one of these steep ascents
A herd of Mountain goats appeared
Agile, scaling the steep and rocky ledges,
the alpine environment
Providing them with protection
From predators .
🐐
Their heads poking out of the clouds
Thick coats like snow
hooves grey as rock
For a moment I wondered
if they were real
Had the mountain come to life? .
🐐
The animals and the mountain
telling a story
Where the mountain
didn’t end with rock and snow,
but with feet and hooves
Thick coats and eyes
above the clouds
As though the two were
one and the same
.
🐐
