* In a [[2005]] interview, a fan asked [[J. K. Rowling]] if it was actually Ginny who sent the valentine. Rowling answered "Yes, bless her," and when asked if perhaps it was part of [[Tom Riddle]]'s influence over her, stated that she sent it of her own initiative.<ref name="leakymuggle">[http://www.accio-quote.org/articles/2005/0705-tlc_mugglenet-anelli-3.htm The Leaky Cauldron and Mugglenet interview Joanne Kathleen Rowling, available via Accio Quote!]</ref>

"His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad,
His hair is as dark as a blackboard.
I wish he was mine, he's truly divine,
the hero who conquered the Dark Lord.
"
— A dwarf, delivering the message[src]

This message was spoken by Ginevra Weasley to a dwarf during Valentine's Day in order to let him give the message to Harry Potter. Harry however was not fond of this and tried to run away from the dwarf, until he tripped and fell in a hall and the dwarf began to sing, which led all students in the hall laugh. Draco Malfoy seemed to know the poem was from Ginny, and made a scathing remark aloud against her, which led Ginny to embarrassingly run away.[1]
