Un jeu de devinettes? (=A guessing game?)

Tableau (Picture) 1
Elle rêve du bel habit qu'elle pourrait se faire dans ce beau tissu, tout en le cousant pour sa maîtresse.
(= She dreams of the nice garment she could make out of this piece of fabric while sewing it for her mistress)

Tableau (picture) 3
Elle a apporté son casse-croûte au berger... elle lui envoie un baiser pour lui dire "à demain" ... Le berger s'est-il repus seulement de pain et de fromage???
(= She brought the shepherd his lunch... she sends a kiss to say "till tomorrow"... Has he feasted only on bread and cheese???)

tableau (picture) 4:
Elle danse pour le roi.
Mais tout au fond, à gauche, elle a repéré un des serviteurs, jeune, beau, et de son rang...
Va-t-il lever les yeux sue elle?
(= She is dancing for the king. But at the other end of the room, on her left-hand side, she has spotted one of the waiters - young, good-looking and of her own rank...
Is he going to look up to her???)

Ces 3 tableaux m'ont tout de suite inspirée...
Voici ma trame des 3 histoires .

PS
Je n'ai pas toujours la réponse à mes doutes ni à mes interrogations...

Parfois je les contemple et les laisse intacts.
Parfois j'y pense et m'efforce d'en découdre.
Parfois je danse ... pour mieux les contourner?... pour m'en amuser?
Parfois encore je les aime et je les embrasse car ils m'aident à avancer.
Je peux aussi les envelopper dans une prière que j'ESSAIE d'élever jusqu'aux cieux...

This is wonderful...

1- She is remembering the last time she wore this red dress...

2- He is looking for which path to take into the woods, does he turn right or left, which way to the home of the woman with the red dress???

3- There is a statue, just across from this one. At night when no one is looking they come to life and embrace. When the lights came on, she was sending out her last kiss...

4- she is dancing for spring...

5- and she is praying that once again, could her feet kiss and dance upon the earth...

I am so thankful to know you and your sweet mother and father Mélanie!!!
