When I look back in my life
I always see my brother's smiling face,
More than fifty years have passed
but I still remember the impish
behaviour of my brother.
He asked me whether I want to see God
I said yes. I like to know who is God?
Soon my brother told me to look at the sky
and I need to rub my forehead
in between the eyebrows with my index finger
without stopping.
He also warned me and said
If I stop rubbing I will not see God.
I diligently obeyed his instructions
till my mother came and shouted
at me and took me inside the house.
By then my forehead start to bleed
and the skin was coming off because of rubbing
My mother called him and asked
and she was shouting at him for doing this.
Later on the day he went and brought
lots of chocolates and sweets for me.
Even now when we see the scar on my forehead
we laugh about it saying how foolish I was to believe him.
