This poem is good to read as it brings the backdrop of winter to a reader's mind. The effect of winter with wind blowing outside makes us feel cold and cosy. The fire is also an addition to the atmosphere and provides warmth from the cold. The trick of the firelight in the eyes are good lines as they convey what the poet is feeling in his mind. The affection between the two people is also brought out. The poetry fills us with a feeling of goodness, warmth and love.
