Legend has it that Bai Juyi used an old peasant woman, who was herself unlettered, as his first "reader." That is, he read his poems in draft to her, tested them on her, and did not quit reworking them until she understood them...
For the same reasons that Bai Juyi was known as a people's poet in China, Williams deserves to be known as a people's poet in America.
Like Bai Juyi and William Carlos Williams, like me, he cannot have the one reader he truly desires--his mother?--because she is not there for him.

 BIROCO.COM ~ Winter Night, by Bai Juyi
I have loved this poem for many years and last night when I was reading it I decided to have a go at translating it, particularly as the sentiments expressed resonated with how I was feeling.
It was written in 812, when Bai Juyi 白居易 (Po Chü-i) was 40 and had retired from the world for a period.
Bai probably means it more in the context of Chan (Zen) Buddhism, although there is a usage of the phrase towards the end of chapter 6 of Zhuangzi that I expect he is also echoing.

 Kennesaw Review--White Cloud Spring translated by Tony Barnstone
Bai Juyi was born in Henan to a poor family of scholars.
According to a popular account, Bai Juyi used to read his poems to an old peasant woman and change any lines that she couldn't understand.
There is a benevolent directed intelligence in his poems that comes through the refractions of culture and translation and makes us feel the powerful presence of this poet who died more than a thousand years ago.

In 841, at the age of seventy sui, Bai Juyi retired permanently from the position of Junior Tutor to the Crown Prince, which was the highest paying job he had ever held.
Beneath this facade of self-complacency, however, Bai Juyi's poems in his twilight years reveal a tension, which results partly from a repressed dissatisfaction with his own political failure but primarily from the pressures of maintaining a large household.
Although Bai Juyi's poetry has always recorded scrupulously his salary ever since he entered public service, those late poems demonstrate in an unprecedented manner the dynamics between the conscious self-imaging of a septuagenarian and the disruptive forces of daily necessities.
