Keening

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

The mourners joined in a collective keening, their voices blending in a sorrowful chorus that echoed through the valley.

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

The ancient ritual involved participants keening together to honor their ancestors.

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
