Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

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

The traditional keening brought tears to the eyes of all those who listened, capturing the pain of loss in its rawest form.

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 women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.
