Keening

The refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

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

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

The old man sat by the grave, keening softly for his departed wife.

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

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.

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