Keening

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

The mournful keening of the women in black veils set a somber tone for the entire funeral procession.

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

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

The injured bird emitted a keening cry, signaling its distress.

The keening of the grieving widow touched the hearts of everyone present, evoking a sense of empathy and compassion.
