Keening

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

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

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

The keening aroma of freshly baked bread wafted through the bakery.

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.
