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

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

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

The haunting melody of keening echoed through the ancient ruins, commemorating the souls who had departed.

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