Explanation:
A theme is the central message an article or literary work is trying to pass across.
A fairy tale is typically a story that involves magic and imaginary stuff that is usually written for children.
A poem on the other hand is a piece of literature that expresses ideas, thoughts and feelings with the use of literary devices for heightened effect.
