Acids (YOU ARE HARMLESS) (Science Poem)

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

HIBISCUS BLOSSOM (Poem)

HIBISCUS BLOSSOM

Ballet dancer moving in the wind,
Showing her beauty, throughout the day,
In the area of her dwelling,
With her stalk legs, movements she displays.

Possessing cup-shaped, pelvic girdle,
Above the trunk, her stalk legs below,
With colour of green, that’s visible,
In forested region of willow.

Having a dress, of fine texture,
Trumpet shaped petals of red or white,
Splendid quality, of the dancer,
With bright colour, an attractive sight.

Shaking her head with hair of pollen,
From swaying side to side, just dancing
With her stalk thorax and abdomen
The good dancer portrays her dancing.
