Keening

The keening wail of the baby echoed through the nursery, causing concern among the caregivers.

The old graveyard was filled with the sound of keening voices as mourners gathered to pay their respects.

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.
