Keening

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.

The injured bird emitted a keening cry, signaling its distress.

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.
