Keening

The mourners swayed and chanted in a keening rhythm, honoring the memory of the deceased.

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 haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

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