Keening

The mourners swayed and chanted in a keening rhythm, honoring the memory of the deceased.

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

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

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

The women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.
