Keening

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

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

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.

The haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.
