Matra pushpam is all in praise of water in general only. 

There are mant other mantras used as part of Sandhya Vandanam which are in praise of water in general.

आपो हि ष्ठा मयोभुवः etc. 

Aapah sookta आपो हि ष्ठा मयोभुवः is used independent of Sandhya Vandanam also.

Dear List Members

A friend has asked if I could help him collect Sanskrit verses in praise of water.

He's not thinking so much of verses praising specific rivers, but water as such.

Does anything come to mind?

Yours Alex
