An anthology by Eris Cardin, Elestren Hawke, Decker J. Martin, Ruby Miner, Summer Analynn Mohr, Maya Pawley, Analea Pennell, Mercy Pope, Ana Rattin, Skylar Rivers, and Beatrice Sanders
As the Frost Melts is a poetry collection that embraces the beauty and heartbreak of life, the joy of whimsy, and the intricacy of the written word. Compiled by eleven teenagers with poetry in their hearts and a heart for their poetry, the collection explores a wide range of themes through both free-style poetry and traditional structures.
​
From season to season, the poems engage with topics such as the loss of childhood, the preciousness of memories, the beauty of nature, and a poet who drinks hot cocoa like an Englishman.
​
We invite you to journey through past, present, and future, to walk through these pages and the themes herein explored, and watch as the frost melts.

Sacrament…
Rituals instituted by Christ to symbolize the depth and beauty of our relationship with Him in the everyday rhythms of life.
Perhaps we limit the meaning of the word. Perhaps every breath we take, every word we say, every act we make, the little beauties of every day—perhaps they, too, are sacramental. Acts of worship. Reminders of Christ. Symbols of greater things beyond.
And maybe poetry helps us to better appreciate this.
These poems are honest prayers, expressions of joy, and songs of yearning written by a young poet who rejoices in the beauty of the written word and the greatness of the King of kings.
May this poetry collection be a blessing and an inspiration. May it touch the heart and stir the soul. And may it bring glory to the greatest Author and Poet of all.
