Sawadee Paradee,
A beautiful angel arrived 33 years ago
on her fluttering Angel Wings
Her educated sibling Oh cradled her and whispered…
“Sawadee Paradee..
Our family’s little treasure, we would named you Ammy
in Gallia, it means Dearly Loved,
Please grow up to be carefree and cherished”

Sawadee Paradee
Time passed like the windy breezes of Doi Mae Tho,
the little darling has blossomed to become a radiant beauty
with ivory white skin like the walls of Wat Rong Khun
twinkling oval eyes adorned by rosebush brows
and soft, sweet strawberry lips, parting to reveal polished pearlies
Her pouch now bearing a battle scar from age five,
and the scar nurtured a sturdy coconut 🌴 teee that stood tall,
amidst stormy weathers, across myriad hurdles,
awaiting the distant sunrise ☀️ where hopes bloom and dreams sprout

As the clock tower ticks,
The spotted doves flew over from Khun Korn waterfall, their songs in union to greet the
young lady..
Sawadee Paradee
Time to pack the bags on a journey of enrichment
from Chiang Rai home to neighboring Phayao
where new friends and adventure awaits
Like her sister, she will learn and earn a degree 📜
refine her skills to balance the ledgers
and provide her future with an edge

Reality awaits after graduation
Office jobs are not her true calling
So she boarded the plane ✈️ with
the stewardess saluting her..
Sawadee Paradee,
Jetting away from the familiarity of home
from the comforting sight of Mae Fah Luang
to the realm beyond
To see the world and seek your fortune
to experience the good and the bad
to give her mama a better life..

Sawadee Paradee
Welcome to Malaysia, your neighbor on the map
Maybe this would be your second home 🏡
only the future can tell
From Chiang Rai to PJ, separated by one thousand four hundred miles
Mountainous roads, curved paths
Narrow bridges, broad rivers
Yet you arrived
on your fluttering Angel Wings
Life is not easy for you
Yet you worked hard and persevered
You became Rose 🌹 and then Rose became Ammy, with a dreamy voice and ready smile
One thousand four hundred miles
Yet you came and conquered my heart
with just a smile
Three years vent and went,
Yet I am still enamored
by your lovely smile
still charmed by your embrace
Time and only time can tell you
what the future holds
and how deep my affection is for you
Maybe the gods know,
the elephants and the horses know
how much I care about you

My wish is for you to lay beside me,
and I can whisper into your ears
“Sawadee Paradee
Time to wake up laew, my love”
My wish is also for you to
be safe, be healthy and find happiness
One thousand four hundred miles
We still met, and I wish
I can give you everything good the world has
and I wish
we can see the sunrise 🌅 together
while I whisper to you..
Sawadee Paradee
