Keening

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

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

The old man sat by the grave, keening softly for his departed wife.

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the people paid their respects to the fallen soldiers.

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

The sailor set sail with a keening longing for adventure, eager to explore uncharted waters.

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
