Riddling..

Some of you may have heard this one...

Two men are walking together down a road, when they meet a traveler. One man turns to the other and says, "Brothers and sisters, I have none. But, that man's father, is my father's son."

What was his relation to this man?

I don't think so.

Can't put my reasoning into words. I just don't agree with your answer. Not that I can figure it out either. Perhaps I'm wrong and you're actually correct. Maybe the poster could chime in.

Haven't googled it but I was thinking about it as I was going to sleep and I had to get up to let you know that I think you're right afterall.

Yes, the speaker is the man's father. Bravo! I like poetic riddles, kind of adds another misdirection element.

Thanks for playing

Couldn't he be the man's father or the man's uncle?
