In Bending to Beauty, Dian Zirilli-Mares uses powerful words and metaphors to craft poems that express universal truths. This is why, as the poet examines the loves and losses of life - she writes of our lives as well. We see clearly that we share dreams, joys, fears. Readers of a certain age will relish poems of childhood memories, as Ms. Zirilli-Mares captures a precious time and place, now long-gone. They will identify with her wry poems of shock and disbelief in growing older. But no matter the focus, the poet pares close to the bone, exploring, yet never shrinking from, the truth. The reward, as revealed in the title poem, is a bending to beauty that makes one stronger. Poem after poem, Bending to Beauty probes the complicated, painful, and wondrous that is life - and holds it up for all to recognize.
