Notes About The Poem

" HARMONY " MY PHOTO, FROM MY ROOF GARDEN, ©

Searching For Harmony

Where are you, oh, Harmony,
Daughter of Mars and daughter of
Venus?
-
Where shall I look for you?
In the enclosure of a serene harbor,
Or 
In the open tempestuous sea?
-
Under the bright sun of a Spring’s day
Or 
Beneath the dark sky of a stormy night?

-
The tormenting echo of your parents’ struggle, in
My divided heart I constantly sense,
Fearing the one, loving the other.
-
Save me, oh divine Harmony, from anguish,
Come, beloved one, I implore THEE
Come, my bewildered soul to pacify,
So, 
I, at last, WHOLE TO BE!

* In Greek Mythology, "Harmony" is the daughter of ARIS ( Mars) God of war and
Aphrodite, (Venus ) Godess of Love. The meaning of the word ARMONIA "Harmony" comes
from the Greek verb ARARISKO which means the unification of opposite forces in nature!

It is indeed a wise man or woman who seeks to queel the forces of love and war, and seeks to unity through compromise and become one in harmony. A great hope for each of us as we struggle with our own being, to become the embodiment of love and peace. I enjoyed the message of this poem and the added information on Greek Mythology, my dear friend, Demetrios. Thank you for sharing from your vast knowledge and wisdom. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

Beautiful thoughts.... sweet friend. In a world divided and compartmentalized by differing ideologies and creeds, harmony is the most sought after virtue ! If God is invited to reside inside, harmony will come to stay within us and in the world !

God willing we will be closer to our goal before our departure, dearest Tom. I hope you have a glorious time in the land of our neighbors. Forget not, Kefalonia though! Thank you!
