Keening

The keening wail of the baby echoed through the nursery, causing concern among the caregivers.

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

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

As the casket was lowered into the ground, the mourners erupted in heart-wrenching keening, expressing their sorrow.

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