Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

The old woman's keening wails pierced the quiet night, mourning the loss of her husband.

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

The mother's keening could be heard as she grieved over the loss of her child.
