Keening

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

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

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 old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
