Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

The refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

The patient lay in the hospital bed, his keening thoughts consumed by the desire to be healthy again.

The sailor set sail with a keening longing for adventure, eager to explore uncharted waters.
