Keening

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

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

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

The sailor set sail with a keening longing for adventure, eager to explore uncharted waters.

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

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
