ABOUT THE AUTHOR 1st Prize winner and judge - NZ Robert Burns Society poetry contest 2015 1st Prize winner - The Caselberg Trust Poetry contest 2025 and Featured in Landfall Tauraka, New Zealand's premier literary journal. Helen Williford-Lower is an award-winning poet whose work blends lyrical precision with a love of world culture and legend. Her career has taken her from the LA slam poetry scene- recording sound design poems at A&M Records and working PR for noted Swiss scientist Dr. Albert Hoffman- to the quiet rural South Island of New Zealand. There she and her husband tended 10 sheep and she began producing poetry collections. Along the way she won the NZ Burns Society Poetry Prize and served as a judge the following year. Her recording of Laurence Hope's bestselling "India's Love Lyrics" received a Staff Picks nod from Libravox. Her blog "Laurence Hope Notes" stands as a unique study of Hope's poetic activism, proto-feminism, and likely early romantic link with Rudyard Kipling. Helen has just been named 1st Prize winner of The Caselberg Trust International Poetry Prize based in Dunedin - a UNESCO City of Literature. New Zealand's current Poet Laureate was the judge. She lives in Hawke's Bay, enjoying raising fruit trees and crafting lyrically precise and sometimes hypnotic rhyming and rhythmic poetry that reaches through the boundaries of language, folklore, and hidden realms.
