Keening

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.

The patient lay in the hospital bed, his keening thoughts consumed by the desire to be healthy again.

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