Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

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

As the fog rolled in, a keening foghorn warned ships of the treacherous rocks ahead.

As the casket was lowered into the ground, the mourners erupted in heart-wrenching keening, expressing their sorrow.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.
