Royally appointed literary post (4,8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

poet laureate

(Other definitions for poet laureate that I've seen before include "Wordsworth, for instance" , "Queen picked out" , "Motion, at present" , "Official verse writer" , "Court versifier" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
