Keening

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

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

The mournful keening of the women in black veils set a somber tone for the entire funeral procession.

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

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

The keening of the grieving widow touched the hearts of everyone present, evoking a sense of empathy and compassion.

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.
