Keening

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

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

The piercing sound of keening could be heard from miles away, signaling the loss of a respected community leader.

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

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the community gathered to mourn the loss of a prominent leader.
