Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
The river is a wondrous thing,
it makes a ge-o-grapher sing,
that such a mighty, moving throng
of droplets joined in current strong
should start as little raindrops frail,
or snowflakes mild, or stinging hail,
united on this parchèd earth
to flowing symbol of rebirth.
