Keening

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

The refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

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 keening aroma of freshly baked bread wafted through the bakery.

The haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.
