God was born on this day

When winter was at its peak..
And the city was decked with trees and lights..
He remembered his mother often said..
That he was born on one such night..

When winter was at its peak..
And the city was decked with trees and lights..
The only difference this day made to him was..
He woke up early and had to work in a hotel late night..

He saw a group celebrating and exchanging gifts..
He thought "why are they celebrating , its my birthday"..
He asked one of them "whats special today?"
With a surprised expression and a mocking smile he said
"God was born on this day".

Years rolled by .. again on one such Christmas day..
A rich man and his wife stopped by a hotel on their way..
He handed over some gifts and cakes to a kid working there..
And whispered to his wife..
"once upon a time I used to work here"..

"Whats special today?" Asked the kid to the wife..
She looked at her husband walking away ..
With pride in her eyes and a smile she said
"God was born on this day "
