Poetic librarian

Fine as sand
Smooth as silk,
It is colorless.
Sweet as sugar
Bitter as horseradish,
It is tasteless.
Clear as water,
Smoky as fire,
It is boundless.
Parched as a desert
Wet as a rainforest,
It is timeless.
Precious as diamonds
Fragile as porcelain,
It is priceless.
The gift of friendship.
