Keening

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

The patient lay in the hospital bed, his keening thoughts consumed by the desire to be healthy again.

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.

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

The haunting melody of keening echoed through the ancient ruins, commemorating the souls who had departed.
