Keening

The howling wind created a keening sound as it swept through the narrow alleyways.

The keening odor of a skunk made everyone hold their breath as they passed by.

The eerie silence of the forest was broken only by the keening call of a distant owl.

The eagle soared in the sky, keening its majestic call.

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.

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