Keening

The keening whistle of the teapot signaled that the water was boiling.

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

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

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

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 haunting melody of keening echoed through the ancient ruins, commemorating the souls who had departed.
