Keening

The patient lay in the hospital bed, his keening thoughts consumed by the desire to be healthy again.

The mourners joined in a collective keening, their voices blending in a sorrowful chorus that echoed through the valley.

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

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 haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.

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