Keening

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

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

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

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 haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.

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