Keening

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

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

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

The traditional keening brought tears to the eyes of all those who listened, capturing the pain of loss in its rawest form.

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