Keening

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

The marathon runner pushed through the pain with a keening determination, longing to cross the finish line.

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

The young child stood by the graveside, keening for his pet dog that had passed away.

The marathon runner felt a keening desire to cross the finish line and claim victory.

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