Keening

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

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

The marathon runner pushed through the pain with a keening determination, longing to cross the finish line.

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

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

The marathon runner felt a keening desire to cross the finish line and claim victory.
