Verse for children (7,5)
I believe the answer is:
nursery rhyme
'verse for children' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for nursery rhyme that I've seen before include "Traditional children's verse" , "Poem for children" , "Young children's verse" , "For example, bursary" , "Jack and Jill, for example" .)
