A kiss can be a special experience when doing so with the person you wish to do it with. Chopin says a lot with this quote about Mrs. Pontellier's life. This quote proves that her husband was not satisfying her and wasn't good at making sparks between his wife and himself. Since this was her "first kiss" that "her nature had really responded" to, Mrs. Pontellier hadn't really felt passion or the fervor that this kiss had brought unto her. The usage of figurative language is clear since Mrs. Pontellier "was a flaming torch that kindled desire." In other words Mrs. Pontellier was very much aroused by the kiss she was experiencing.
