“Would you like a cup of tea?”
the walrus asked the flying bumble bee.
“Tea, tea, tea, tea”
laughed the bumble bee,
“tea is too hot don’t you see?”
The walrus shook his head and then he said,
“Well of course it’s hot,
for that is what it’s supposed to be!”
“Walrus, Walrus. Bumble Bee’s like me,
we don’t drink hot things like tea.”
The walrus then became very confused
..a little shocked
…and slightly amused.
“I don’t see, Miss Bumble Bee,
why you don’t drink hot things like tea?”
The bee laughed again and then she said,
“Hot things and hot tea are too hot, Mr.Walrus, too hot for me.
I only drink cold things and iced things, like iced tea.”
“Well I am a walrus so that won’t be too hard for me,
I can bring some ice up from the bottom of the sea.
And then we can put the ice inside of the tea.
That is, if you will have tea with me?”
The bumble bee bounced with glee
And then she said,
“I would love to have iced tea with you
and for you to have hot tea with me!”
And then they then drank their tea very happily.
