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 refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

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

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

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
