Stir in the cream and thyme, reduce the heat to medium low and cook 5 minutes to let the flavors incorporate. Turn off the heat and let cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a medium heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining minced garlic clove and cook 1 minute. Mix in the zucchini and poblano strips and cook 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Spread about one-quarter of the corn mixture in the bottom of an 8-by-11-inch flameproof baking dish. Cover with 3 lasagna sheets. Layer one-quarter each of the poblano mixture and cheese over the pasta. Repeat the layering 3 more times. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake until the pasta is tender, about 50 minutes.
