Keening

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

The refugee glanced back at his war-torn homeland with keening eyes, filled with longing for a peaceful life.

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

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

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.
