Who Am I? 

 

I was the Professor who invented a toy and became famous by accident, 

I was nothing to special, in fact I was just a normal resident. 

 

I was born  in Hungry, in the year of 1944, 

This was unfortunate, since the world was still in a conflicting war. 

 

My invention is a toy that can jumble, twist and turn, 

But if you do it right, the form will always return. 

 

I have two children, and I was married two times, 

They also have been successful and both are in their primes. 

 

Before I created my invention, I was a professor in architecture, 

I had to stand at the front of a room all day and give many a lecture. 

 

I intended my creation as a tool to help people solve 3D problems, 

Although I never knew that it would hit the market and really blossom. 

 

Right now, I am still alive at the healthy age of 77, 

But once I die, I will watch my creation above from heaven. 

 

So, back to the original question. Who Am I? 

Well, I am Erno Rubik if you asked why.
