Keening

The keening cry of the baby echoed through the quiet night.

As the fog rolled in, a keening foghorn warned ships of the treacherous rocks ahead.

The young girl gazed out the window with keening eyes, longing for the arrival of her absent father.

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

The artist's brush moved across the canvas with a keening grace, expressing her deep longing for freedom.
