Just Asking the Solstice Valentine

Is it a minor curious thing
That when we say the word love
The O is silent we say uh
As if we're not quite sure 
Writing it one way
And speaking it another
We put it at the end of letters
When really it wants to be
In the greeting the salutation
Right after the place and date
On which it happens to appear
And how can we overlook that
Blessing O that goes on 
Sounding like a birth or death
