I'm going to a wedding.
My nephews getting wed.
Neither have their fathers,
So it's Uncle Don instead.
I'll be at top table,
With the bride and groom.
There'll be another 'Best Man'
If I leave him room.
No doubt I'll hear the comments,
"Who is that at the head?"
"I do believe it's Uncle Don,
I thought that he was dead!"

I acted as "Father" for a close female Jamaican friend coming up to 5 years ago. In my speech i broke the ice asking "How many are questioning whether I'm her real father"?
