What a beautiful work of art and your 6 words compliment it beautifully. I would have one suggestion, center your 6 words to the pic so that the eye stays centered as well. Don`t want to miss a thing.

Nice
Comment from Frank Malley
Harmony is an interesting subject, both musically and socially. The outcomes are more reliable musically; if you know what you're doing, the harmony will work. In contrast, I don't think that social harmony has ever existed for more than a century or maybe two, and profound peace was scarce even then. Harmony uses rules, and humanity isn't a trustworthy follower of rules, so profound peace may elude us probably most of the time.
This piece reminds me of Zen koans, which I'd have to look up to refresh my sense of them. These six words are full of good will, but less full of good poetry. Nice ideas aren't the same as poetry.

Comment from Jesse James Doty
I can find no better six words to describe how peace can immerge from harmony. This speaks so well about the imminent troubles we all have in our lives and how harmony can bring peace for all of us to enjoy.
Thanks for sharing and I love the picture by Cindy Sue Truman she is remarkable!

I agree with the message of your poem. Harmony guarantees peace. Put two or more people together, and complete harmony is a challenge. The color scheme of your presentation is well coordinated and the artwork and poem pair perfectly. Best wishes in the contest.

Hi Maria,
I liked this Harmonic piece. :)
It's alliteration was perfectly peaceful, and it's picture was perfectly purple. ;)
It is a prettily pleasant poem presented here.

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a sweet 6-word poem entry. The text is a good size. I like that it is a color. The color coordinates well with your visual.
I feel the poem would present better with "create harmony" on one line and the rest on the second line. I would also remove the caps if left on one line. It makes the last two words appear insignificant when they are critical to the full meaning. The sentence makes sense and is relatable.
The visual works well. If the contest is not over, good luck.

Comment from jacquelyn popp
I enjoyed reading your poem. Beautiful illustration photo and went perfectly with your poem to make it even more enjoyable. Your words said so much in yet so few words. It would be so wonderful if everyone were together in harmony, and or everything, and I also feel that through harmony, peace will emerge. Thank you for sharing.
