She tends the trays in silent flight
Thale cress glows in pale starlight
The hangar bay hums soft and deep
Orbital night has much to keep
Zero-G garden roots hold fast
Nutrient film flows built to last
Photosynthesis in metal night
Life persists beyond the light
She checks the p
H murmurs low
Solanum lycopersicum grow
Tomato vines climb carbon walls
No gravity to make them fall
Zero-G garden roots hold fast
Nutrient film flows built to last
Photosynthesis in metal night
Life persists beyond the light
Condensation beads on polymer glass
She watches moments slowly pass
Oxygen rises clean and sweet
Recycled breath and root excrete
Her fingers tremble on the dose
Of iron chelate nitrate rose
The isolation wears her thin
But seedlings push from deep within
Harvest cycle nears its end
Data logs she will not send
Seeds packed tight for Earth return
Lessons learned but bridges burn
Zero-G garden roots hold fast
Nutrient film flows built to last
Photosynthesis in metal night
Life persists beyond the light
Hangar doors stay sealed and cold
Her story not for tales retold
Yet in the green a quiet pride
Life blooms where nothing should abide
Zero-G garden roots hold fast
Nutrient film flows built to last
Photosynthesis in metal night
Life persists beyond the light
Life persists beyond the light
Humming fades in recycled air
Roots drink water heavy rare
Chlorophyll drinks the artificial sun
Gravity forgotten growing done
