Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

As the fog rolled in, a keening foghorn warned ships of the treacherous rocks ahead.

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

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

The ancient ritual involved participants keening together to honor their ancestors.

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
