Rockstar Ronan's Eyes

Rockstar Ronan's eyes were as blue as the Caribbean. They showed strength, and love. And they made you feel a sense of ease. As if letting you know things are okay. So shocking how easy it is to see so much misery in a child's eyes. But he wasn't one of them. He had the courage to fight a waged war from cancer on him. With no fear, he was ready. He fought his best, but unfortunately lost in his mother's arms 3 days before his 4th birthday. But his eyes would have never have let you suspect he was ill. They were playful, timid, sweet. A gentle touch to warm a cold heart. Nothing had ever made me feel as if the world didn't consist of any evil at all. Looking into those eyes made me feel safe. Made me want to make a difference. I wish my eyes could hold the strength like his. Rockstar Ronan is a real child that did pass last year. You can find his mother's blog called 'Rockstar Ronan' or look up 'Rockstar Ronan' and he will pop up. You really should see those eyes. Also, Taylor Swift just wrote a song about him. Called 'Ronan' check it out. It will bring tears to your eyes.

You keep his story and a little of his life alive here. Beautifully written and greatly presented. I'll look it up. May he not be forgotten.
