Keening

The mourners swayed and chanted in a keening rhythm, honoring the memory of the deceased.

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

The young child stood by the graveside, keening for his pet dog that had passed away.

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

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.
