Rhyming and Riffing My Way to 100 Years

An unexpected poet emerges during the 2020 pandemic when architect Gloria Jaroff discovers a new passion for poetry in her nineties. Inspired by everyday moments and conversations, this collection of 51 poems explores life through rants, raves, and reflections, blending humor, gratitude, and thoughtful observations. Like her jazz piano improvisations, Gloria’s words capture the rhythm of life and celebrate the power of self-expression at any age.
