I was shoved in a box and sent on my way,

to a far away place called Phila, PA.

As soon as I got here I knew I was out of luck

Nittany Lion country is no place for an OSU Gnome named Buck.

Even though Penn State Football has seen much better days,

The fans here are still passionate in so many ways.

"We are Penn State!" everyone would say,

So I put my head down and went on my way.

I started to worry that this couldn't be right

As there weren't any OSU fans in my sight!

This was much different than my Columbus home,

and finding friends here would be tough for a little OSU gnome.

I saw scarlet and grey out of the corner of my eye

and I was quickly scooped up by (what all the ladies say) is a tall, handsome, muscular guy.

"Come on Buck, we're going home" He said

"I'll get you some food, a fire, and a nice warm bed"

And now it is obvious, I know that I'm home

I'm a well fed, warm and happy little Gnome.

I get to see my friend Zeke on the wall everyday,

and made it in time for the Bowl games, the next time we play.

That is the end, I have finished my quest.

--Thanks for the gnome secret santa, you're the best!--
