Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

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

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

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

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

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