Precious are the friendships carved and seen in rhyme
Syllables we hear in our own perspective time
Fragrance lingers long as each memory rekindles
Scintillating flavors carrying each other to their prime
Offering this to both sites, dVersepoetspub,com and napowrimo. Write a poem in the rubai style. AABA meter. Include images that engage all five senses, inviting the reader to see, touch, hear, taste and smell. I tried.
