expression that doesnt use a words strict meaning
the theme of a poem

Explanation:

Figurative language is an expression that doesn't use a word's strict meaning. It involves using words in a non - literal way, such as through metaphors (e.g., "time is a thief"), similes (e.g., "as brave as a lion"), personification (e.g., "the wind whispered"), etc. These are all ways of expressing something without using the literal meaning of the words. The theme of a poem is the underlying message or main idea. The literal meaning of a word is its straightforward, dictionary - defined meaning. And the definition of a poem is a more general description of what a poem is as a literary form.

Answer:

Expression that doesn't use a word's strict meaning.
