Keening

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

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

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

The haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.

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

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

The keening tone of his voice conveyed the depth of his heartbreak.
