Edward ..., writer of nonsense verse (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lear

(Other definitions for lear that I've seen before include "of poetry?" , "hardly the 7 [NO NONSENSE] type!" , "troubled king" , "Tragic Shakespearean king" , "King -, Edward -" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
