There are way more rounds about fall than about any other season. Contemporary pop artists seem to often have a song involving summer (Summertime, Summerboy, Summer Love, etc). A certain number of Christmas songs are actually just about winter.

What genre of music takes spring as its season?

And folk songs about sex.

Lots of them about walking out one morning in May.

yeah, I think troubadour songs and related (like madrigals) are very spring-y.

Vivaldi? (Though he did all four, I suppose)

Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring and Copland's Appalachian Spring are pretty famous - I'm not sure I know of classical works that famous about any other season...
