Keening

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 widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

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 haunting melody of keening echoed through the ancient ruins, commemorating the souls who had departed.
