Why wood does not melt?
Actually there is wood that burns, like firewood. In campfires, or outdoor cooking, wood in the form of dead twigs are also used to sustain the fire. Anyway, for wood that does not burn, it is because of the water in the wood. Wood is hydrated, since trees and plants take water up through their roots and through the stem/trunk/branches to the leaves, which require water for photosynthesis. This hydration prevents wood from burning due to the heat capacity of water and the latent heat of evaporation of water. The heat energy relased by a flame used to try to ignite the wood would therefore first need to remove the water from the wood before it will combust.

What will burn first wood or plastic?
Under normal circumstances, wood will burn first because it has a lower temperature of combustion than metal. That means a stick will catch fire and burn faster than a piece of steel pipe the same size. In fact, under those normal circumstances mentioned, the stick will burn and be reduced to ash while the steel pipe will not be affected. Many times structures will burn and the steel water pipes will be left only blackened after all the wood has been consumed by the blaze.
