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

The singer's voice soared in a beautiful keening note, captivating the audience.

The young child stood by the graveside, keening for his pet dog that had passed away.

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

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