Sands of time

I dropped a pearl once in a faraway uphill dusk 
Venus sprayed our playful night with a dark-toned musk

On lustful breasts you had but written of a sacred bond
Soft cotton kisses, sweet whispers, voices from beyond

And all at once the world sank and we stopped time's runaway hand
Alongside my pearl we cleared his debt with five shells and some sand
