Keening

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

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

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

The women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.
