Again, he was not successful as a farmer, and he turned to writing and teaching to support his family.In 1912, Frost sold the farm and moved his family to England, where he met and was influenced by such contemporary poets as Ezra Pound and Edward Thomas. While in England, Frost also established a lifelong friendship with the poet Wilfred Gibson.Frost returned to America in 1915 and bought a farm in Franconia, New Hampshire.
