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

The mournful keening of the women in black veils set a somber tone for the entire funeral procession.

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

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

The character in the horror movie let out a keening scream that sent chills down the audience's spine.

The keening of the grieving widow touched the hearts of everyone present, evoking a sense of empathy and compassion.
