Streamlined

Like when bagpipes sing 
from far away
Its streamlined music
not overplay.

The soothing flow
of something pure
A sound that lets my
heart feel cured.

Its hard to appreciate
the way this makes my soul
come alive with hope and faith
and restores my self control.

Ripples in the blue 
Takes all the noise away
The nonsense that comes daily
conjuering disarray.

I love freely 
no holds barred
nature speaking
I show my scars.
