Roderick has some verse (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ode

'verse' is the definition.
(ode is a type of poem or verse)

'roderick has some' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word.
'ODE' is hidden in the letters of 'roderick has'.

(Other definitions for ode that I've seen before include "Lyric poem" , "Poem expressing noble feelings" , "(Railway)system" , "A poem celebrating person or event" , "Poetic composition" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
