extract from an Ogden Nash poem

Let the rockets flash and the cannons thunder,
This child is a marvel, a matchless wonder.
A staggering child, a child astounding,
Dazzling, diaperless, dumfounding,
Stupendous, miraculous, unsurpassed,
A child to stagger and flabbergast.
Bright as a button, sharp as a thorn,
And the only perfect one ever born.

Arrived this evening at half past nine.
Everybody is doing fine.
(If you suspect I'm bored and trolling
sigmonster, you're wrong, I'm not bored.)
