Keening

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

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

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

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

The traditional keening at the Irish wake added an emotional element to the farewell ceremony.

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