Keening

The sound of keening pierced the silence of the night, a heartbreaking lament for the deceased.

The keening screech of the brakes startled the pedestrians on the sidewalk.

Her keening wails echoed through the funeral hall, filled with sorrow.

The keening of the steam whistle signaled the departure of the train from the platform.

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the people paid their respects to the fallen soldiers.

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.

The collective keening of the crowd created an atmosphere of deep sorrow and grief.
