He loves me.

He has chosen me
Above all others.

For one who has
Never been first
Before,
I am still quite
Astounded.

He has loved
And been loved
By so many:
Annie, Angie, Louise
...Irene.

And not all
Have been women.
His first love
Was Frank Zuko.

But now he has
Chosen me,
Despite his loud
Complaints
About my stories,
My politeness,
My naivete.

He loves me
And enfolds me
In the bosom
Of his family,
And I am his,
Without question.

Dear Ray,
I am proud
To be
Your Chosen.
