HUNTING AND GATHERING

Ku ku was singing a song
Economics life he calls
Flying high in past ages
Learning all economics stages

Ku ku looks a jungle man
He was hungry, want bread
He killed a white rabbit
With a weapon he made

Ku ku was frightened,
With the weapon he saw,
All were hand made
With stones and wood

Oh so much noise, ku ku heard
Ku ku was surprised
He saw animal all around
Gathered and alive

Why cattle’s not killed he ask
A man answered so wisely
All are stored to full our belly
Even if the day is rainy

Now ku ku understand
How man has developed
It was the first stage
Hunting and gathering it called
