The correct answers are A and D.

A theme is the main message of a literary work, be it a poem, a novel, or a play. What the author is trying to convey, as well as what the main topic is, makes the theme of that particular literary work. The feelings and opinions you are left with after reading it makes you think about the theme of that work.

Final answer:

A theme in a poem is the underlying message that the author wishes to communicate to the reader. It is both the main topic the poem emphasizes and the poet's message to the readers.The correct option is A,D

Explanation:

The two statements that best define a themeof a poem are 'A theme is a main topic that a poem emphasizes' and 'A theme is a poet’s message to readers through a poem'.

In literary terms, a theme is the underlying message or the big idea that the poet tries to communicate to the reader. It's not merely a topic, but goes further to convey an opinion or a central idea about that topic.

While imagery can evoke emotions, it does not define the theme. Similarly, a statement about a subject of a poem might discuss the theme, but it's not the theme itself.The correct option is A, D.
