Keening

The keening stench of decay emanated from the garbage dumpster, making it difficult to pass by.

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

The character in the novel was portrayed as a keening figure, forever yearning for redemption and forgiveness.

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

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