The harp is in the strings family. Other instruments in the same family are: the violin/fiddle, viola, cello, double bass, electric violin, electric viola, electric cello, electric double bass, harp, laser harp, banjo, and the Ukulele. There are still a lot more though.. but I felt like naming a few. :) Hope this at least helped a little.

What instrument is to accompany personal poetry?

In my opinion, it would most probably be the piano. If you're going to ask why, it's simply because of the sound projected by the piano. It's one of the most soothing and it has a calming effect on the listener. Another instrument could be a harp. The harp sounds somewhat like the piano, with it's soothing sound. So since it's poetry you're asking about, I'd really recommend either a piano or a harp.
