Keening

The old man sat by the grave, keening softly for his departed wife.

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the people paid their respects to the fallen soldiers.

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

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

The sailor set sail with a keening longing for adventure, eager to explore uncharted waters.

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