About Italy and My Cat, poem by Norberto Franco Cisneros at Spillwords.com

Rick is a husband, father of twins, brother to two sisters and a brother, and son of parents who emigrated to the United States from Austria after World War II. A graduate of the University of Illinois (Urbana-Champaign) with an MBA from the University of Texas in Austin, Rick spent over forty years in the corporate world, specializing in Human Resources.
Rick writes when a story hits him, and his work can be found in Spillwords, The Last Line, Books and Pieces, and Horrortree, along with a book titled “Clarence Earns His Wings Again.” His wife Kate, two dogs, Bailey and Sawyer, and sometimes their daughters (when not in school), Katie and Chloe, make their home in Illinois
