Keening

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

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

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

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

The old man sat by the grave, keening softly for his departed wife.

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the people paid their respects to the fallen soldiers.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.
