Jane Eyre : Imagery

When perusing the pages of Jane Eyre one of the things that lept out at me was the constant uses of Imagery. after a minute of careful thought the reason for all this imagery became clear. the author used this literary device so much because the book is a love story.
When writing about romance it is essential to give vivid detail so that the reader, as well as the character can fall in love. how would it be if the author wrote " and they kissed " instead of " and their lips passionately met" the use of Imagery makes the love story more real and vibrant, giving the character and the world they live in life.
