Acids (YOU ARE HARMLESS)

You are harmless like a baby

Although you have a sour taste

You are innocent

Safety you represent

Although you turn blue litmus paper red

You may be mild and non-toxic

You are a good electrical conductor

You are non-addictive

You are inoffensive

You have pH values less than seven

I need you in my life

You react with active metals to produce hydrogen gas

You are acceptable

You are unobjectionable

You react with carbonates to produce carbon dioxide gas
