The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

The keening screech of the brakes startled the pedestrians on the busy street.

The keening screech of the brakes startled the pedestrians on the sidewalk.

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

The keening of the steam whistle signaled the departure of the train from the platform.

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

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

The keening sound of the foghorn guided ships safely through the thick mist.

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