Keening

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

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

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

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

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