Phoebe began a nationally recognized annual radio program called One Poem a Day Won't Kill You, on KRDB that invites people to read a favorite poem or one they have written on the radio during the month of April which is national Poetry Month.   Phoebe produced the program for 10 years until moving from Ketchikan, Alaska to McMinnville, Oregon.  The poetry program continues and during the month of April, 2012, KRDB aired a poem a day for all 30 days.  


Here are four poems Phoebe reading in McMinnville April 30th, "Beautiful Sara Lee", "The Fall", "Sciatica" and "When Bitten By The Crocodile"
