the leaves scared me today

since it's autumn, there're giant leaves from giant trees all over the ground. as i neared my dorm today, this enormous gust of wind whooshed in my direction and the seemingly innocuous leaves on the path in front of me flew up, forming a formidable leaf wall. as this wall rushed toward me, i wasn't sure what to do. i briefly considered protecting my face with my arms but ditched the idea since that would make me look lame-ass to the other pedestrians. thankfully, the need for a decision suddenly died as the leaf wall leveled out before it hit me. i was left trembling and considering the what-if''s. i'm still unsure how to interpret this experience. is this a warning from above?....
