Overview

What does it mean to carry the whole world within you, and to find, in every place you land, the unmistakable pulse of your own soul looking back? In Here, There, and Everywhere, Constantina moves through the landscapes of longing, both geographic and interior, tracing the contours of forbidden love, spiritual hunger, sensory wonder, and the ache of perpetual parting. From the sun-warmed terraces of Lisbon to the desert silence of Abu Dhabi, from the ancient stones of Sintra to the war-torn village of Borovo, she bears witness to the full spectrum of human experience with unflinching tenderness and fearless precision. These poems will resonate with anyone who has ever loved a place or a person so completely that leaving felt like a small death, and who has carried that love forward anyway, through every parting, across every distance.

Author Information

Dr. Constantina Ann Clark was a poet, educator, and lifelong student of philosophy, religion, and the human spirit. An award-winning poet honored with the Faulkner Award and the Dancing Poetry Award, she earned her PhD in Philosophy and Religion.In her own words, she was a ""humanoid"" living within a soul, always remaining, by her own joyful admission, something of a mystery to herself. A devoted wife of nearly 46 years to her husband Raymond and proud mother of nine, Constantina found deep joy in family, nature, travel, animals, literature, and the beauty of the world. Her writing reflects her love of humanity, her spiritual curiosity, and her fearless honesty about life's joys and sorrows. Constantina passed away on May 4, 2023, after a courageous battle with AML leukemia.Here, There, and Everywhere: Musings in the Seat of the Soul is one of four poetry collections published posthumously, continuing a legacy of beauty, wisdom, and unflinching humanity.
