Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

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

As the fog rolled in, a keening foghorn warned ships of the treacherous rocks ahead.

As the casket was lowered into the ground, the mourners erupted in heart-wrenching keening, expressing their sorrow.

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