Pierre Edouard Frère (1819 – 1886, French) | Umbrella art, Rain art,  Illustration art
For anyone wondering, I am obviously using the boy as the speaker in this poem.

picture 2 I shyly walk under your umbrella. Though I’m glad you’re sharing it with me, I feel as if you wield all the power! To be your boyfriend is my silent plea. You are so pretty, and I feel so plain - not equal to you, for I am instead just leaning in, for your umbrella you hold barely well to cover my head. Oh, pretty girl that I do so adore, I wish I had the words to tell you this: I hope one day you’ll smile when you see me, and in the rain, we’ll share instead a kiss!
