Keening

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

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

The refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

The keening aroma of freshly baked bread wafted through the bakery.

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.
