Keening

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

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

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

As the casket was lowered into the ground, the mourners erupted in heart-wrenching keening, expressing their sorrow.

The ancient ritual involved participants keening together to honor their ancestors.

The women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.
