Poem from English stage, "Journey's End" (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elegy

'poem' is the definition.
(I know that elegy is a type of poem)

'english stage journey's end' is the wordplay.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'stage' becomes 'leg' (a leg is a stage of a competition).
'end' indicates one should take the final letters.
The last letter of 'journey' is 'y'.
'e'+'leg'+'y'='ELEGY'

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for elegy that I've seen before include "Type of poem" , "Song of lament" , "Work of poet" , "Sad or reflective poem" , "Song of lamentation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
