diffraction of sound waves is common in nature,but not in light waves why?

Because the wavelength of sound waves is much longer than the wavelength of light. The wavelength of green light is about half a micron -- half a millionth of a meter, or half a thousandth of a millimeter. The wavelength of A above middle C is about 78 cm. That's a difference of a factor of about a million and a half.
Another factor is coherence. It's easy to get coherent sound -- again, a factor of the much longer wavelength. The only easy way to get coherent light is with a laser.
