Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

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

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

The mourners joined in a collective keening, their voices blending in a sorrowful chorus that echoed through the valley.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

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