2. The Gnome will be hidden in a public place (Gnome don't go wandering onto private property)
3. Gnomes like to hid somewhere safe and wont go somewhere dangerous (so neither should you)
4. Gnomes can't be found unless you are with an adult. It's more fun with your family.
5. He will be in a brown bag (so dont call it in, as a suspicious package)

A trail he would never walk
Wood but not a tree
They drew up the fields
Planted but never growing
Never to be knight
