"Time for bed," Mama says,
"and I've brought flowers for your room."
"I can only sleep in a blue room," says Alice.
"Blue is my favorite.
And thoseâ
aren'tâ
blue."
"Ah ... but smell," Mama says.
In a blue room,
lilacs and lilywhites
give off a gentle scent.
Alice twirls around,
plops down,
and breathes deep.
Mama returns with a steaming cup.
"Would you like some tea?"
"Blue tea?" says Alice. "There's no such thing."
Mama says, "Just taste."
In a blue room,
orange tea
cools in a brown cup.
Alice takes a sip,
then rubs her drowsy eyes.
Mama brings an extra quilt.
"It's silky-soft and warm."
"It isn't blue," Alice says.
Mama whispers, "Touch."
