Keening

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

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

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.

The injured bird emitted a keening cry, signaling its distress.

The women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.

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