Keening

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

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

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

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.

The keening tone of his voice conveyed the depth of his heartbreak.
