Those Winter Sundays

From what point in time does the speaker view the subject matter of the poem? What has happened to him in the interval?

The speaker views this subject matter as looking back in the past. He is remembering his father and how much he was underappreciated, and he says this because his dad did so much for the speaker and the rest of his family and nobody thanked him. His father would work so hard that his hands cracked and ached and the speaker always thought that his father wasn't to fond of him because his father never told him that he loved him. Although he never told him that he loved his he showed him he loved him by doing things for him such as polishing his shoes and little things like that.
