Keening

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

The character in the novel was portrayed as a keening figure, forever yearning for redemption and forgiveness.

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

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

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.
