Need help with a special TOC

You need to have a paragraph style applied to all the poem titles, and only to the poem titles. It also helps to create a paragraph style for the TOC entries. Make a faux entry with title and page number then set the style, margins, and tabs as you want them. Make that a paragraph style then use that for the TOC entries. Your TOC setup might look like this…

The results look like this…

As @James Gifford—NitroPress said - it would be straightforward IF you have ParaStyles applied to the poem titles.

If you don't - then you need to use Find&Change to apply them. 

In Find What set formatting applied to the titles, in Change To select ParaStyle that should be applied - leave text fields Find & Change blank. 

There should be no problem with this. Set up your TOC using the poem titles as the target paragraph style.

You could even get tricky and only put a page number on the first of each poem by assigning one Paragraph Style to the first on each page and an identical one, with different name, to the second. (You may already have that set up to provide page breaks for the first.) So the TOC would show:

• First Poem About Frogs...........................241
  Second Poem About Frogs
• First Poem About Giraffes.....................242
  Second Poem About Giraffes

...etc.

Otherwise, setting up a TOC is fairly straightforward but involves a number of steps. You might be best off finding a good tutorial, or we can walk you through the basics here.
