Keening

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

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

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

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.
