Dear Friends in the Photosynthesis Community:
I wish you all a very Happy New Year for the 1998 that is to arrive
in eight days only. I attach
for your pleasure a short poem from "the Ruba'iyat". Hope you will like it.
With best wishes,
Govindjee
Grandfather of Sunita (our daughter Anita's daughter)
& grandfather of Arjun (our son Sanjay's son)
P.S.: Hope to see you in Budapest in August, 1998. Perhaps, we will be
able to show you at least two new books in our "Advances in
Photosynthesis" Series (Kluwer Academic, Dordrecht): [1] Lipids, edited
by Siegenthaler and Murata; and [2] Chlamydomonas, edited by Rochaix,
Goldschmidt-Clermont and Merchant.

All the plants grow beside the stream
Have surely gorwn from angels' lips
Tread roughly on no plant
For it has sprung out of the dust of the
tulip-cheeked
From the "Ruba'iyat"
