एकशामअचानकपूरेमोहल्लेकीबिजलीचलीगई।
घरमेंअँधेराहोगयाऔरसबपरेशानहोगए।
पहलेतोबच्चेअपने-अपनेफ़ोनमेंलगेरहे।
परथोड़ीदेरमेंफ़ोनकीबैटरीभीखत्महोगई।
तबमाँनेएकमोमबत्तीजलाईऔरसबकोपासबुलाया।
उन्होंनेपुरानालूडोऔरसाँप-सीढ़ीकाखेलनिकाला।
पूरापरिवारज़मीनपरबैठकरखेलनेलगा।
सबखूबहँसेऔरएक-दूसरेकोचिढ़ानेलगे।
किसीकोभीफ़ोनकीयादनहींरहीक्योंकिसाथबैठनाअच्छालगरहाथा।
जबदेररातबिजलीवापसआई,तोकिसीकाखेलछोड़नेकामननहींथा।
उसरातपरिवारनेजानाकिअसलीखुशीएक-दूसरेकेसाथमेंहै।
