Keening

The mourners swayed and chanted in a keening rhythm, honoring the memory of the deceased.

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

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