Query_post – date

I am making query_posts to display three subpages on my homepage and problem is that it displays DATE only in first item.

<?php query_posts("posts_per_page=3&post_type=page&post_parent=27"); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class="test">
<h4><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4>
<p class="date"><?php the_date('Y-m-d'); ?></p>
</div>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
