Keening

The abandoned puppy let out a keening howl, desperately yearning for someone to rescue it.

The wounded animal emitted a keening cry, pleading for help.

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.

The keening howls of the wolf pierced the silence of the night.

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

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