Poet showing how ode to London could start? (4)
I believe the answer is:
owen
'poet' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for owen that I've seen before include "Clive --, English actor" , "Welsh boy's name" , "'E won over the Welshman" , "Wilfred -, English poet killed in World War One" , "Wilfred - - , WW1 poet" .)
