Keening

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

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

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

The traditional keening at the Irish wake added an emotional element to the farewell ceremony.

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.
