She comes from meeting a beautiful Camaroon woman in China.

She was tall and gracious, her forms rounded, even the makeup of her brows.

She seemed poised and wise and ready to carry anything asked from her.

In my mind I saw her carrying water, water a symbol of the spirit, carried to bestow nourishment and plenty.
