Valarie Golden
Hello, darlings. I am Val. She/her. I am an ally of the earth and all her people. I also happen to be a follower of jesus. I am a poet and an author and a girl that dreams. I am a minor between the ages of 14 and 18. I am no longer active on Hello Poetry, but you can find me there under the same pen name I use here. "If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world." -J.R.R Tolkien
