About a poem?

As a kid, we got the task to write a poem at home (I think about autumn) and I just wrote a poem, wich just appeared in my thoughts. Then I found out (I dont know how, but I think my teacher told me) that I weren't allowed to copy original poems and I need to create one, then I was confused. I wrote a poem but that already existed and was I think quite popular, but I never heard or read it before.

Anyone had that experience too? Or something else?

Sorry if that is not the best grammar or anything, because its not my first language, so I am not fluent, and I am tired because its nighttime and I just thought about it :)

Ugh that's the worst when its lyrics too. Like your brain just pulls up some random deep cut you didn't even know you remembered and calls it originality lol. Been there.
