Keening

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

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.

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.
