I am four inches long when not enlarged
My neighbors are the Stomach and the Ribs
When the lean on me blood cells are discharged
They are mostly red and come out in drubs
My job is that of an infection fighter
Defense against invaders is my thing
On defense I feel like a bullfighter
When I fail at this job I feel a sting
When I lose, pneumonia could take over
Pneumonia or worse, meningitis
With success I can feel like a chauffeur
Or a baseball player who does not miss
When I work, everything is keen
When no, you'll wonder where I am, your spleen
