Her poem talks about the silent language of children's hands that create Idrija lace.

The Japanese Prince and Princess visited last year, and made a stop at the Lace School of Idrija. There they were introduced to the centuries-old tradition. Now the town of Idrija has received word that the princess composed a poem about the experience. The tradition of writing such poems dates back to the 8th century, although it has only recently been open to the general public.
