Keening

The keening screech of the brakes startled the pedestrians on the sidewalk.

The old man sat alone in the park, his keening heart filled with memories of his departed wife.

The keening of the steam whistle signaled the departure of the train from the platform.

The eerie keening of the ghostly apparition sent shivers down their spines.

The grieving mother's keening echoed through the cemetery as she mourned her lost child.

The young child stood by the graveside, keening for his pet dog that had passed away.

The mourners wailed in keening voices, their sorrow filling the air at the funeral.

The old man's keening eyes reflected a lifetime of loss and regret.
