Oh, so do I - miss the repetition I mean. And where did the sheep come from? Totally rhyme-driven, I think. What has happened now is that the little scenario that the poem showed me has disappeared.
It was like this: our inept photographer is showing someone (his light o' love, perhaps) a picture that he has taken of her. When she shows distress at his ineptitude, he blusters - then tries to tell her he can make it better...
Could you try something like:
The shot is lovely - dark and deep -
(if that's not too cheeky!)
Ignore the sore thumb - do not weep,
For I can crop this in my sleep (x2)
Do Merkins use the expression "sore thumb" for an obvious intrusion? I do - and I bet Tessa does, too.
