Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

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

The marathon runner pushed through the pain with a keening determination, longing to cross the finish line.

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

The marathon runner felt a keening desire to cross the finish line and claim victory.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.
