harmony sweeps away my pollution
calm peace is preferable
for conflict tarnishes and rusts
seek a wiser solution
tolerance patience or even distraction
warm kindness extinguishes hostility
conflict causes dis-ease
harmony brings ease
harmony
aroused 
Very true Kate and love how you finished with these wise lines:
“conflict causes dis-ease
harmony brings ease”
Wonderful message!

Negative emotions do seem to bring their own set of ills. I try to avoid the negative and focus on the positive – and this post is an excellent reminder!!
