The refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

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

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

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

The injured bird emitted a keening cry, signaling its distress.
