Tau Ceti Garden

Every morning when the twin suns rise Golden light through the greenhouse skies Me walk the rows where the water flow Watch strange new colors start to grow Tomato vine with a silver streak Sweet blue berry with a citrus peak Earth and alien side by side Like dis whole world open wide Tau Ceti garden hold we near Wrap we up and calm we fear Every season something new Planet say “me welcome you” Jah bless root and Jah bless rain Life keep changing once again From old Earth soil to alien dew Tau Ceti growing something new Me work maintenance all day long Keep the farming robots strong Servo clean and sensor bright Hydro pumps run through the night No hungry child in colony town Food grow upward, never down More than enough for every plate No rich man gate, no starving state No animal scream, no blood nor chain Protein growing in the nutrient rain Perfect texture, perfect taste Nothing living gone to waste Then one day in the testing line Mixed red algae with climbing vine Doctors stare in disbelief Compound bring the sick relief Now every time something appear Nobody throw it out from fear Old Earth habit cyaan rule dis place Discovery move at slower pace Berry, fungus, root or flower Every seed might hold some power So every sample carefully stored Tested, studied, logged and scored Tau Ceti garden hold we near Wrap we up and calm we fear Every season something new Planet say “me welcome you” Alien fruit and Terran grain Learning how to live again And every harvest shining bright Feel like Jah smile every night Some say humans come conquer land But dis world just take we hand Not through war nor iron fist But through morning farming mist And maybe someday history tell How humanity finally learn well Not every frontier need a gun Sometimes peace feed everyone
