"The Whitsun Weddings" describes a train journey that takes place on Whitsun weekend. The poem details the sights and events observed from the train as it travels through the English countryside.
While the poem predominantly uses a first-person singular perspective ("I"), there are moments where the speaker shifts to a more inclusive viewpoint, hinting at a collective experience, especially when describing the shared experiences of the wedding parties boarding the train.
The poem does not discuss an advertising poster or any disfigurement of a landscape on a poster. Instead, it focuses on the real landscapes and events seen from the train.
There is no mention of a drug pusher in the poem. The poem’s themes revolve around weddings, journeys, and the passage of time, rather than any involvement with drugs.
