Rules covering bush poet (6)
I believe the answer is:
lawson
'bush poet' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'rules covering' is the wordplay.
'rules' becomes 'laws' (laws are rules).
'covering' becomes 'on'.
'laws'+'on'='LAWSON'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for lawson that I've seen is " See 6".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
