This poem I had originally written as an assignment in my 6th grade year for language arts, and I had recently bought Sonic and the black knight for my Wii. Within the game there is a song sang by Crush 40, in which they referred to Sonic the hedgehog as the knight of the wind. Being a huge fan of the series, and admiring the title, “the knight of the wind”, I wrote this poem, describing Sonic as he is portrayed in the game, and also, somewhat, in his others. This piece ended up sparking a creative side of me that I had never once known of, my talent for poetry, and I have been writing poetry ever since.
