There we were in the garden

We'd shared the Passover meal
(and that got pretty scary all that talk of betrayal and death)
and then we headed of to Olivet so the teacher could have a pray at the bottom of the hill.
Gesthemane they called it, a nice garden, not much to talk about or look at at, certainly was never going to be famous anyway but that's where 'he' chose and as usual we followed (because we just did O.K.?).
Then off goes the teacher with three of them whilst we stayed back and, well to be honest, we nodded off.
Must have been about three hours or so later I woke to find the world had gone mad and there's:
Torches,
Swords,
Soldiers
Noise!
Then I see Judas kissing the teacher and there's a bit of a scuffle,
a few cracked noses and,
Was that an ear I saw flying through the air?
And there's the teacher being tied up and dragged away.
It's probably all going to be sorted out with that much trouble,
Everything back to normal after a bit of finger-pointing and shouting;
After all - what else can they do with him?

Took this photo'of the soldiers arriving
Bet the teacher will have a laugh about it later!
