Keening

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

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

The keening wail of the baby echoed through the nursery, causing concern among the caregivers.

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

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