Keening

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

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 traditional keening brought tears to the eyes of all those who listened, capturing the pain of loss in its rawest form.

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