Moon and Sun Play on Earth Green and Neutral

Oct 11, 2025

Moon and Sun play on Earth green and neutral . 

Her sacred neutrality dependent 

Upon an XX genotype decent , 

But who's Ze ? A question  very vital . 

 

The parrot in the green cage talks to zir . 

Ze is comely , but neither 'he' nor 'she' . 

The bird on zir left palm ne'er tries to flee , 

And whispers something into zir left ear . 

 

A human is Lily ,born  on a night . 

Who 's ze ? To this day doesn't ze really know . 

Ze feels one unlike the mother , somehow . 

The nine-month  vain womb been seeking a knight . 

 

Lily , a white lily , is a four-year     

Old kid ,and was born on a new moon night . 

A posthumous chick , born to face tough fight 

To all zir babbles turn all a deaf ear . 

   

When in the cozy womb just a fetus , 

Ze lost father , a florist by calling . 

That's why zir name is Lily , a leapling . 

On father's grave has ze got a huge crush . 

 

Lily is a third standard in zir teens . 

Mum , a widow , empowers her living 

Thro' embroidery and seeks God's blessing ,

And the hapless spouse had she lost long since . 

 

A flower bisexual is the lily 

Aquatic  , but our Lily  - a human . 

Ze identifies zirself a rare man , 

When in the teens , of course , a phase silly . 

 

Lily dropped out of school very early . 

Ze inherited one pollen , gratis , 

And , iwis , infused with hard 'n' soft traits , 

And looks awkward but awesome and godly . 

 

Lily  is 'yond the binary spectrum , 

And stands still in between 'she' and 'he' now . 

The brakeless spring can't at ease draw out 'wow' ! 

From zir throat , tho' the heart beating a drum . 

 

Science  does know better ' Who're non-binary ?

' But why they're featured so ! No due answer . 

On our festive beach are they trespassers . . .

No right , 'haps, to recite the Rosary . 


In recent times arose a stigma high 

Against zir for being a compound , Rare ! 

One judges others by the underware ; 

Zir local texture earns only ‘ Fie ! Fie  !’ 

 

All humans are dependants radiant , 

But some indulge themselves with a rock band , 

And never care the remainder in hand . 

A whisper may be  a note resonant . 

 

When our Holy Scriptures remain silent 

About non-binary graftings , sorry 

To voice , our reckless drive does not worry

A whit . But they’re a bright symbol pregnant . 

 

Springtime does boost our energy level , 

And we taste her goodness in every touch . 

Lily peeps as though a chick in the hutch . 

Still, ze feels attached to the womb novel . 

 

Lily – an unbaked minim with sense coarse 

Nature is an eighteen- year bride mirthful . 

Thro’ tender twigs blowing the breeze healthful , 

There’s all catchy all around in due course . 


Nature in vernal phase shapes glamorous . 

Lily’ has neither a beard nor a curl . 

Ze’s with winged dreams .but ze must not unfurl . 

Them , ze’s a covert for a ‘ Y ‘ surplus . 

  

Spring arrives with the romantic cuckoo . 

The bony mind rejuvenates itself . 

But Lily can’t play the flute by zirself . 

None approach to play on zir piano . 

 

Our Nature proves to be  of beauty pied . 

No hue or cry heady arrests zir eyes . 

The tunes of zir violin fade all dyes . 

Ze’s to the critical pole tightly tied . 

 

The season cycle keeps in view the needs 

Of all creatures . But young spring with her hues

 Unbosoms to all suitors scenic views . 

A thirsty bosom on worm touches feeds . 

 

Lily , all-round , not just a funny goon . 

Ze abates our carnal brute in the breast . 

Like us, ze too dreams of a cozy nest . 

Let’s go to let zir out of the cocoon . 


Lily does face all the facets unkind . 

For , ze’s one of a kind  , a touchy shape . 

When a nosey Parker winks , ze goes ape . 

True , none must run after a patchy hind . 

 

Spring pretty is called the ‘Queen of seasons’ . 

But few artists paint Blood Moon on canvas . 

A gibbous moon has no standi , locus . 

The Trinacria isn’t ‘yond all reasons . 

 

Lily took birth with ambiguous marks . 

Albeit a negligible human , 

Ze coverts soft loam coloured and humane 

To be sprinkled o’er zir and no remarks . 

 

Lily isn’t a witch from behind the sights . 

Ze’s ,for sure , the live dream of a womb-shell . 

A touch , three cheers and a ten-by-ten cell 

That deprive us from perceiving zir plights . 

 

All festivals during holy Spring meant  

For binary pals , who’re in lavish mood . 

Whyn’t for zir at dusk a bowl of stale food  

Or just two pence ? Spring heads for a mean mint . 


God hath unfathom’ble authority 

O’er all et also o’er mighty Nature . 

But Nature painteth a caricature ,  

And we’re subject to Her false vanity . 

 

O black Crow , can’t you  be vocal for those 

Leftovers ? Too bitter to earn hatred . 

In spring all date et dine honey and bread . 

Lily’s just one green parrot to propose . 

 

Lily stands last alone , facing the east . 

No bread if there be no fungus called Yeast . 

One healing touch greater than two lips sweet . 

‘ Be no cloak , but a hankie to wipe sweat ‘ . 

 

Lily stands out like Hermaphroditus 

And not be a carnivorous Venus .

The poem on such an irregular theme is rarer than more other ones in English.

The poem discloses the unpleasant truth that we really ignore them who are created by God Himself.
