Matseletsele was born and raised in Lesotho,
Southern Africa. Poetry skills are part of her
upbringing. Many in the Mountain Kingdom
are gifted with the unique skill of making up a song in an instant. It is a way
to rise to the occasion of life, given by passed legends of faith and founders
of the small African nation. Many Basotho Poets cite poetry in their native tongue to praise
their ancestry. According to the author she recognized her poetic skills as she
repeatedly bragged about her ancestry. It was always commented, “You should
write and publish.” The comment meant nothing until a fateful near death
encounter. Not hers; someone else’s. This is her first book. There’ll be more
in the future. The goal is to build an up-to-date hospital in Lesotho
by the year 2020.
