The Whitsun Weddings- an overview

Larkin's collection The Whitsun Weddings is obviously a very good bit of poetry.
 Is he really a grumpy old man just waiting to die? No, I don't think he was. I think that through The Whitsun Weddings, he is really just reflecting. He often gives us the idea that loneliness isn't always a bad thing. Being on your own gives you time to stop and think about things. About your life. I personally really like this idea.
