Keening

The mournful keening of the women in black veils set a somber tone for the entire funeral procession.

The piercing sound of keening could be heard from miles away, signaling the loss of a respected community leader.

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the people paid their respects to the fallen soldiers.

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

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