Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

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

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

The keening aroma of freshly baked bread wafted through the bakery.

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