Wordsmithing

I find myself 
adrift in thought
of words I'd like to pen,
some in verse
not always rhyme
to share now and then.

Can be fiction
sometimes not
or just a point of view,
created by the use of words
a thing I like to do.

This elementary exercise
intent to entertain,
perhaps just me
and sometimes others,
words I did arrange.

Should it bring
smiles to face
or thoughts to comprehend,
that simple task
of writing words
effects, I did intend.

Yes, I too like to play with words. They amuse me and like you said: if it brings a smile to someone else, that is a plus.
