I am not sure if this will suit your purpose, but you could show the 4 seasons through stages in a person's life - for example:

Spring - the season for falling in love....engo piRandavarAm
Summer - Wedding bells - unakkum yenakkum isainda poruttam yenna poruttamO; children - cinnanc-ciru kiLiyE kaNNammA
Autumn - quiet introspection...something like SambhO mahAdEvA
Winter - getting ready to pack up - OhO kAlamE or even yennaiyum varac-connArO

Choreographing for greeshma verses from kalidasa's rithu samharam wouldnt be a bad idea either..! gives ample scope for abhinayam and sanchari bhavas!
