Missing "U"

Don't you spell colour with a "u"?
Maybe you could do
Don't you spell labour with a "u"?
Without the "u", there's a letter too few

Don't you spell neighbour with a "u"?
Without the "u", the 'hood seems bl(u)e
Don't you spell flavour with a "u"?
It tastes much better, between me and you

Don't you spell harbour with a "u"
The extra letter calms the storm
Don't you spell saviour with a "u"?
To some it's just the norm

Don't you spell valour with a "u"
Go on, try it! "oh you are" so brave
Could you savour writing English English?
Or does it belong in a language grave?!
