Music is made out of melody and harmony. Melody is the basic tune of a song (which we can easily hum o we can just guess the notes using a keyboard). Harmony on the other hand is the accompaniments to a melody (base chords, drumbeats ect) which makes your song complete. Harmonization is a crucial part in song writing o piano playing because only by harmonization you can make your melody rich and power and also add emotions and color to your song.
