Keening

The keening voices of the choir conveyed the deep sorrow of the funeral service.

The old graveyard was filled with the sound of keening voices as mourners gathered to pay their respects.

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

The somber, keening notes of the bagpipes filled the air at the memorial service, evoking a sense of solemnity and remembrance.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.
