Of Talent and Musical Instruments

The January 15, 2013 prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" 
What one talent do you wish you had, but don't (non-writing related)?

I want to make music
not with a pen
but with my lungs,
my finger,
or my hands.

I want to play
a musical instrument,
but not just any musical instrument.

I want to play
a musical instrument
whose chords
haunt the mind
and penetrates the soul.

The January 15, 2013 prompt for "Blogging Circle of Friends Prompt Forum" 
If you could learn to play a musical instrument, one which you've never played before, which would you choose and why?

I want to play the instrument of my genetic heritage.

The haunting
chords of bagpipes
bring tears to my eyes
and comfort to my soul.

I want
to learn to play The Pipes!
