Keening

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

The keening cries of the bereaved could be heard at the gravesite.

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

The mourners' keening filled the air as they bid farewell to their beloved friend.

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

The keening of mourners echoed through the somber church as they bid farewell to their beloved pastor.

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.
