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

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

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